I'm not getting an error message. The restore utility just doesn't see the backup file. It's looking for a file *.backup which is there but noot seen.

I am running a version that identifies itself as 1.6.2. I downloaded it a few weeks ago from the official site. Should I be using an earlier version??

Well I haven't use much of PGAdmin but I will always be using pg_dump and pg_restore for that as they are really easy to use.

You can find help on backup and restore at --> http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/backup.html

pgAdmin is just a frontend to pg_dump/pg_restore for backup purposes. Perhaps Bob could share whatever error message he gets with us?

Oh, and there is no released 1.6.2 version of pgAdmin - that would be head of the current stable branch.
