Default Dropping an active connection on an attached database - 01-09-2008 , 12:42 PM






Why in the hell doesn't SQL Server provide a facility for dropping an
active connection on an attached database in SQL Server Management
console? I can't detach an attached database because apparently there
is an active connection.

I know you can use SSEUTIL but it seems like kluge for a poorly
thought out function.

ALTER DATABASE db SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
