Question:
I was experimenting the other day with backups on a test box.

What is the correct procedure to apply current archive logs to a previous cold backup? For example, you have taken a cold backup of a database on Monday, ran hot backups during the week, and for just fantasy sake none your database crashes on Saturday and ALL of your hot backups are lost save for the archive logs.

How do you apply the archive logs to the cold backup? I can't seem to get it right on our test box.

Thanks in advance!
