The answer to the original question is yes, there is a backup conduit which
will move your database to the pc if you set the backup bit for the
database. This is done with the following code:
// Set the backup bit.
dbID = DmFindDatabase( 0, aenLogName);
DmDatabaseInfo( 0, dbID, NULL, &attr, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL,
NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL );
attr |= dmHdrAttrBackup;
DmSetDatabaseInfo( 0, dbID, NULL, &attr, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL,
NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL );
Hope this helps.
