I want to back-up my database onto an empty memory stick but when I try profiler keeps asking me to insert a disk. I had indicated on the screen that opens when I press 'Backup Database' that I want it to go to a removable drive but it keepasking me to insert a disk - what am I doing wrong?

Long shot, but maybe your backup is too large for the memory stick.

Why don't you backup to your hard drive, en then copy the backup to your memory stick.

The memory stick is an 8gb one so I think it is big enough - but I will try as you suggest

This problem has been raised before - and the answer is always to back up to a hard disc and then just copy the file to other media.

Don't use the option to use a removable drive. Simply select a path that is on your removable drive.
