When I try to open the back up files I am getting an error that the files won't open as they have been saved on a newer version of SQL Server than 2005. I've spent about a day trying to work out how to switch the version of SQL Server it is looking to run with no success. Has anyone come across this issue before and resolved the issue. Thanks Colin.

If you need WinCC flexible 2008 SP3 you have to get sure first if you Operating System is compatible with WinCC Flexible 2008 SP3 -> because Win10 or newer is NOT released and compatible with SP3! (only with SP5) LINK So if this fits, you would have to uninstall WinCC Flexible complete and als the SQL Server of this System and then you can install 2008 SP3 (its because this version is only released with specific SQL Version -> check in Compatool) Bye Murof
