Was unsure where to place this post.
Windows Server 2003R2 w/ Sp2
MS SQL 2005

I currently use MS SQL 2005 to host my Citrix Datastore DB. I manually run a daily back up (Tasks>Backup).
How difficult would this be to automated? I have googled this without luck.

Any insight appreciated.

Thanks,
Kerry

I was able to automate the backup using a Maintenance Plan (wizard). Works great.

Thanks,
Kerry
