Restore a backup to a different db name and path

I have the following situation:
Database1 on my sql server with the following path: C:\DBs
\Database1.mdf, etc... I made a backup of this database. Now I need
to restore this backup on a different pc into the following: Database2
with the following path C:\Customers\DBS\Database2.mdf, etc... I have
MSDE install on the pc so I dont have the enterprise manager that will
allow me to restore a db and rename the path and file name. What is
the script that I need to run using the osql command?
Thanks

something like
RESTORE DATABASE [Database2]
FROM DISK='full_path_of_backup_file'
WITH MOVE 'Database1' TO 'C:\Customers\DBS\Database2.mdf',
MOVE 'Database1_log' TO 'C:\Customers\DBS\Database2_log.ldf'
See BOL for the gory details
|||Thanks...
I tried that but now I get this:
Server: Msg 3234, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Logical file 'Database1' is not part of database 'Database2'. Use RESTORE
FILELISTONLY to list the logical file names.
Server: Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.

Sorry, it would appear that the 'logical name' of your database is NOT
Database1. To find what the logical name is, do what the message says by
running the query
RESTORE FILELISTONLY
FROM DISK='full_path_of_backup_file'
Then, in what I wrote before
RESTORE DATABASE [Database2]
FROM DISK='full_path_of_backup_file'
WITH MOVE 'Database1' TO 'C:\Customers\DBS\Database2.mdf',
MOVE 'Database1_log' TO 'C:\Customers\DBS\Database2_log.ldf'
change MOVE 'Database1' to be MOVE 'logicalname1' and
MOVE 'Database1_log' to be MOVE 'logicalname2' (probably MOVE
'logicalname1_log') for whatever logicalnames are shown by RESTORE
FILELISTONLY
FWIW I have just run the following renaming-restore successfully for
myself
RESTORE DATABASE [Database2]
FROM DISK='C:\Documents and Settings\chris\My Documents\Databases
\Cambridge-41a-Backup-2005-06-03'
WITH MOVE 'Cambridge-41' TO 'C:\Documents and Settings\chris\My
Documents\Databases\Database2.mdf',
MOVE 'Cambridge-41_log' TO 'C:\Documents and Settings\chris\My
Documents\Databases\Database2_log.ldf'
(cut-and-pasted) so it's just a matter of making the appropriate changes
(making sure that the commas, quotes, etc are in the correct places).
