how to connect to .mdf file with sqmcmd?

Hi,
i have several mdf files for several asp.net applications. How can i reach
such a database with sqlcmd?
Thanks
BobThe .mdf is just the data file it is not the server. Have you looked up
sqlcmd in BooksOnLine?

manage such a database with sqlcmd (something like 'use mymdf_file'). Maybe
that file is attached to the server ...
