hello All,
I run the following sintax
====================================
/*
Shrink a named transaction log file belonging to a database

Changes:
28.04.2004
Modified the inner loop so it tested the dx time so long overruns did not happen
Modified the inner loop so it had a fixed minimum quantity so there was no skip in skip out
29.03.2006
Modified the inner loop so it had a dynamic minimum quantity to allow faster shrinkage
24.05.2006
Modified the USE statement so it uses brackets around the dbname
Modified the @TruncLog variable so it uses brackets around the dbname
31.06.2006
Modified the code to use PRINT instead of SELECT in several cases
Modified the code to use @MaxCount instead of two unclear rules
Modified the code to use @Factor instead of several hard-coded values
Commented the use of @Factor
Moved the configuration and @Counter init code to before the start of the first loop to avoid repetition
Modified the code to display the process runtime in seconds rather than minutes

/*
Factor determining maximum number of pages to pad out based on the original number of pages in use
(single page = 8K). Values in the range 1.0 - 0.8 seems to work well for many databases.
Increasing the number will increase the maximum number of pages allowed to be padded, which should
force larger amounts of data to be dropped before the process finishes. Often speeds up shrinking
very large databases which are going through the process before the timer runs out.
Decreasing the number will decrease the maximum number of pages allowed to be padded, which should
force less work to be done. Often aids with forcing smaller databases to shrink to minimum size
when larger values were actually expanding them.

All code after this point is driven by these parameters and will not require editing unless you need to

====================================
but i got following error
Msg 155, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
'TRUNCATE_ONLY' is not a recognized BACKUP option.
I am using sql server 2008
