I would call it testbk.sql, to help point and click operations on this file, but these are details. > Apart from this, is there a need to take the backup of data > directory in > C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.2.

This will only work if you stop postgres before backing up the directory. But you dont need that to work. You have already got what you want, all the config data which is inside the directory. I think you have come a long way already. You should read the postgres docs yourself from now on. We cant paraphrase everything from there on the list. You have gathered all the parts, now you need to put them together and find out how it works for you.
