• I had previously added to this thread good point   Still is a good point,

    but rather than following the way of expressing the date as given

    in the article (mm/dd/yyyy) which is ambiguous for those of us outside the

    USA, you should follow the example given in trusty books online

    This example restores a database to its state as of 10:00 A.M. on July 1, 1998,

    and illustrates a restore operation involving multiple logs and multiple backup devices.

    -- Restore the database backup.
    RESTORE DATABASE MyNwind
    FROM MyNwind_1, MyNwind_2
    WITH NORECOVERY
    GO
    RESTORE LOG MyNwind
    FROM MyNwind_log1
    WITH RECOVERY, STOPAT = 'Jul 1, 1998 10:00 AM'
    GO
    RESTORE LOG MyNwind   
    FROM MyNwind_log2   
    WITH RECOVERY, STOPAT = 'Jul 1, 1998 10:00 AM'
    GO

    This example shows that you can express the date in a less ambiguous format.  I imagine (though I haven't tried it) that the widely accepted format of yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn where hh is 24-hrs would also work.
