Beta Data Conversion

I have a data file in Beta 2 version, but now I've already uninstalled the
beta version and installed a new Release Version of SQLServer 2005. Does
anybody know how to convert the data file to be usable in SQLServer 2005?Jeffry
Are you talking about .MDF datafile? If you are , have you tried to attach
the file? There are two system stored procedures as sp_detach_db,
sp_attach_db

Sorry, I still couldn't find it. that's why I want a solution without setup
another Beta 2. Does Microsoft provide such tools?
