Scott,

Check out the DBCC commands, they are supposed to do what you want to
do.

Although.... large log files can actually indicate non-committed
transactions.  
Maybe a better question would be : Why is the system creating such large
transaction log?

You may actually have to export data from your db , destroy the original
db and recreate then re-import.  This is a horrible way to fix a huge
log file, but it will work.

Hey gang -

Any SQL7 gurus out there who know how to, resonably painlessly and
safely, 
shrink a SQL7 database logfile from 83749234mb down to something
reasonable?

Any help (advice/instructions, or links to such) would be most
appreciated. 
Replies off-list are fine.

Thanks in advance,
--Scott
