There's certainly a difference between [Microsoft] SQL Server, which is what we're talking about, and "a SQL database," which is not what we're talking about. If we were talking about an Oracle database, calling it SQL Server would be inaccurate, at best, and I'd be recommending a different backup strategy. > Also, if instead of being snotty, you were really trying to be > helpful, you would have mentioned that even for MS SQL Server a sync > is required unless you enable the SQL Server VSS Service which may not > be obvious from your snappy and mostly unhelpful remarks. It's NOT required, as I've tried to make clear, even pointing out the relevant technical documents. I'd rather be snappy than perpetuate misinformation. And I'd rather you either keep it professional, or refrain from replying at all. Nobody's gauging your worth by the volume of your posts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
