Dropping a file in a filegroup that does not exist.

Hi,
I moved a database from an older sql box to one of our new servers. One of
the files in the prmiary file group was not moved and the server was wiped...
the filename is sysft_ix_STS_neo_1414639615. Everytime I try to do a backup
of that database I get a "file or firegroup is not online..." error message
and SQL won't let me drop it because it does not exist. Can anyone help me
out?Hi Henry
If there was data in this filegroup then you would have to resort to your
last backup.

would solve this. This is what I recall from earlier post with the same problem.

You are probably right! sp_help_fulltext_catalogs might verify this!
