Re: Can see deleted data in MDF & Backup
Elmo,
Have them use scripts (these can be generated from Enterprise Manager (2000)
or Managment Studio (2005)) to create another database. Then use the data
import wizards to import the remaining data from their database into the new
database. Only the data will come over, not the pages that still contain
undeleted fragments of sensitive data.
Then they can send you the new database.

I have a customer who need to send us their database but wont do so because
of sensitive info contained in it. They have tried deleting and truncatng
the data but you can still see the data if you open the mdf or backup with
a
text editor?
