| Posted: | | | | 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?

| Posted: | | | | 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. | | | View my collection at http://www.chriskepolis.be/home/dvd.htm

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

| Posted: | | | | 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. | | | Paul |

Don't use the option to use a removable drive. Simply select a path that is on your removable drive. | | | Karsten DVD Collectors Online
