from Express to 2005? - How to?

I have a database on SQL 2005 Express and i want to restore in SQL Server 2005 Beta 2 but it's not accepting it? so how can i do it please? any tool?I assume you want to go from the RTM build of Express 9.00.1399 to the Beta build of SQL2K5. If that's the case you cannot do that. Some where between Beta 2 and RTM (I think it was around the March 2005 CTP) the format of the database changed. We supported moving forward but not going backward. I'm not aware of any tools that will allow you to go backward.|||..and in addition to that the license of beta is no longer valid since the RTM was published. if you want to move forward get a RTM version of developer or any version you want to migrate to.
