    Hi,

    I have two databases like each other that one is the backup of

    another. Each DB have 2 filegroups. I want to replace one

    filegroup from one db to another. How do I do this? Or how do I

    backup and then restore?

    Cannot be done.

    Filegroups cannot move from one database to another.
