How does SQL 2000 Server back up user database?

Hi All,

Would someone give me an explanation on how SQL 2000 server backs up a
user database? Is SQL server make a copy of user database first, and
then backup it up to a defined backup device? Or is it going straight
to the defined backup device.

Thanks,
Bob.

The backup goes straight to the backup file or device - there's no
'temporary' copy of the data, if that's what you mean. Part of the
transaction log is included in the backup, to make sure that the data is
consistent.

Hi all, I'm building an ASP app on a Windows 2000/IIS machine which interfaces with our SQL Server 2000 database via OLE DB. Since we're based in the UK I want the users to be able to type in dates in UK date format to input into the database. In Enterprise Manager on the SQL Server I can manually enter a record into a table and just type in a UK date (MM/DD/YYYY e.g. 25/12/2004) and it accepts it happily.
