Question : SQL 2005 database move to Windows 7 64 Bit with SQL 2008 R2 Engine installed

Yesterday I did a FULL BACKUP of a large SQL database running SQL 2005 and Windows 2003 Server.
I then copied the newly created sql_song1.bak file to an identical Folder on the same lettered D drive on the Windows 7 computer via my personal network.
I then performed a RESTORE query in Microsoft Management Studio. That was successful.  However when I pulled up the newly formed sql_song1 database, it showed all the tables (about 40) of them and all had the proper fields.   But, when I would right-click on a table, there was no option to OPEN TABLE.  Therefore I did everything except put the data in the tables.  What did I do wrong?
Thanks for any assistance.  I can supply the exact Backup and Restore query text if needed.

Answer : SQL 2005 database move to Windows 7 64 Bit with SQL 2008 R2 Engine installed

>> The database on the 2008 showed no errors, but both columns were blank.  Am I correct that that verifies that indeed only the blank tables were successfully moved and no actual data was moved?

Then there is some problem with your RESTORE either RESTORE haven't happened or you have restored the wrong backup file..
Can you try restoring it again..

Try taking a new backup is that can be done..
