  1. I would like to automate downloading a copy of my SQL database.
    I would like for it to occur nightly and then once a week I will archive the data onto CD.

    I figure I will have to use dts at some point and then after sufficient time for dts to complete then run a local backup.

    I have a version of SQL running on my local computer.

    Thanks,
    Greg

    you cannot set up scheduled job on our sql server.

    my recommendation

    - set up a DTS package on your local computer to download the whole DB to your server

    - schedule it to fit your need.

    hope this helps
