| What is the purpose of the backup? Sounds like you might not be using an appropriate method - difficult to say without more info.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |

| manu,Backing up database is not the same as Data Transfering (which is the purpose of DTS).If u want to backup only data, then ur way would be OK, but its not backup database.In ur database u don't have objects other than data (eg views, stored procedures, triggers etc ?Import & export wizard can be used to move data among databases.eg. From database A, u can export several tables and some records of some other tables to a Database B.So tell us ur requirement!! |

| How do u know, whether the data are new or changed or deleted in the source database?I think u may need replication.If u r worried only about inserting data, u can use DTS with a Query (instead of selecting a table name), which checks for the same record using Not Exists and the fully qualified name of table (SQLSvr.User.TableName) |
