No incremental backups?

What I seem to understand, from what I've read, is that those of us using
the BACKUP functions in Vista Business are limited to doing COMPLETE backups
ONLY?? We cannot do an INCREMENTAL backup? I'm hallucinating, right? If that
really IS correct, is there some logical rationale?

I completed a backup in Vista Ultimate just before reading your post. I
tried to find info via the Help and Support, and guess what it found
searching on 'Incremental' - yes - Backup (which topic in fact doesn't
mention the word once) :)

According to Windows Vista Guide:
Incremental backup is supported on Windows Vista Home Premium, Business,
Enterprise and Ultimate.

Well that's great, BillD ... but have you USED the Backup utility in Vista
Business? I have ... and I don't find any way to do an incremental backup.
What is this "Windows Vista Guide" that you're quoting from? Is there any
information you can provide, other than simply telling me I'm wrong?
