Restore ...

1. I backedup databases from mssql7 default pathname with default pathname onto
tape.
2. I installed sql 2000 server onto another computer.
3. I restored data into the default directory that was created with MSSQL7
c:\...\MSSQL7\... from tape created in step 1.
4. In Enterprise Manager for sql 2000, I do see default databases. But I
don't see the ones I restored.
5. How can I view the databases I backed up in step 1? I have over 50
databases.
Thank you for your help!
