Bill There is an option in TDP to back up a file group. I've never understood what it is for. Looking online for information about NDF files, that same term, "file group", popped up. So, I'd start there are see if that fits your use case.

I have a customer with a database with an NDF file the use for 'archiving'. That doesn't get included as part of the TDPSQLC BACKUP * FULL command. How can I get that included in the SQL backup of the server? Or do I need to use the BAClient for that? TIA, Bill "Enjoy life. It has an expiration date." - ??
