Not anymore... :-)

Is this right? (Files will go in the F:\Main_CrimDB path)

Start with

ALTER DATABASE CrimDB SET OFFLINE

Then move the CrimDB.mdf and CrimDB_log.ldf files to F:\Main_CrimDB
and F:\Main_CrimDB\Log directories

And then

ALTER DATABASE CrimDB MODIFY FILE ( NAME = CrimDB, FILENAME = 'F:
\Main_CrimDB\' )
ALTER DATABASE CrimDB MODIFY FILE ( NAME = CrimDB_Log, FILENAME = 'F:
\Main_CrimDB\Log' )

ALTER DATABASE CrimDB SET ONLINE

And after that, the script to show the result

SELECT name, physical_name AS CurrentLocation, state_desc
FROM sys.master_files
WHERE database_id = DB_ID(N'CrimDB');


.... right?
