Backing Up Project files.


I am developing using Visual C#.net. It appears that my web projects create
files in both "My Documents\Visua l Studio Projects" and ".\inetpub\webr oot".
Does backing up these files ensure that my code is all backed up? Is there
a backup/restore FAQ somewhere?

Yes - if you backup both locations, you're in good shape. For web projects,
the primary files are locatedin the inetput\webroot \. If you are doing a
desktop application, or creating a class library .dll, those files would
primarily be stored in the my documents folder. Note that you can modify
the default location of your .NET solutions in the options of VS.NET.

As it is .NET, all you have to do is copy to back them up ... nothing fancy.
Restoring the files after a drive loss would only requiring setting up
virtual directories, and then putting the files back in their approrpriate
spot.

Good luck.

Question: Can I use a redirected drive for the backup media? Is there a way to trick SQL into allowing...

I have posted previously a procedure for backing up a remote MS-SQL db as text. This is a revised version in Javascript/JScript. This backups data and procedures as XML. My purpose in creating this is to preserve my data in simple form. When one rents a remote MS-SQL db, one may find that getting a backup is more expensive than the renting. One could add other parts, say indexes, of the db to this procedure quite easily. I want only those...

I am new to MySQL. I have an application using MySQL running on Windows Server 2000. If I were using Microsoft SQL Server 2000, I would need special software to back up an open SQL Server database. Does this same problem exist with My SQL? In otherwords, could I take the native NTbackup.exe that comes with Server 2000 and back up an open MySQL database without stopping the engine first? Thanks.

I made a back-up of the project as it appeared in my Visual Studio Projects file and removed all further traces of the project using the Search option of WXPP. How do I restore that project? Just copying it back to my Visual Studio Projects file didn't do the job. Could you please be a little explicit in your response so I will be able to implement your suggestion? Many thanks! Adrian
