SQL Enterprise Manager dropping registered servers 1

[thomsons]

I'm running Microsoft SQL 2000 on my Windows XP PC.

Issue I'm having is that randomly it drops my registered servers from Enterprise Manager (but keeps the Server Groups).

When you go into Regedit you can still see the servers but nothing is apprearing in Enterprise Manager.

I've tried adding all my servers then going into REGEDIT and exporting the following registry key information into a .reg file:-

HKEY_Current_user\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\SQLEW\Registered Servers X


I tried deleting one of my servers then running the .reg file and this successfully added the server back in but if I loose my registered servers after I have rebooted my PC then this doesn't work.

Does anyone know of any way around this or a quick way to add in all my servers again after they are lost.

Thanks in advance,
Sharon
