I am trying to schedule regular compacts and backups for a database on our
server through Windows task scheduler. I got the compact to work, but am
having issues with the back-up. Here is the successful compact target:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\MSACCESS.EXE"
"\\Callctrsrv\AuidtorHomeV1_1_be.mdb"/Compact

What command would I insert for backup?

You are correct. The grammar in posting was slightly confusing, but I
obviously want to back the BE data up before I campact it.

I have been tied up since I posted this, but plan to test it tonight.
