Unanswered backup does not backup

    Hi.

    SQL Server 2000 EE was able to do this but just found out that SQL Server 2005 EE does not do this. When I select a database to backup, even if i select a different path to backup to - it says it has successfully backed up and verified the backed up database however I am unable to locate it in that path specified.

     

    I have also ran a Windows Search on the file - it does not pick up anything.

     

    When I go back to SQL Server 2000 EE - the same results occur, I was able to backup databases before installing SQL Server 2005

    Is there something I am doing wrong?

    that did not work either. I have re-installed everything again for a different reason - and will try this again, havent installed SQL Server 2005 so we will see what happens
