Windows 2000 Backup

[Paul]

Problem: I have been using the included Backup program for
some time now and it has been working fine with my HP tape
drive. I automated the backup process by using the
Scheduler to schedule my backups to run at night. The
problem is that for some strange reason the report logs
are very poor and do not give a lot of information when I
use the scheduler. The reports were fine and gave me
plenty of info about the backup when I use the interactive
wizard for backup. Is there a way to fix or change the
report logs so that it gives more detailed information
about the backup (when it is scheduled)?

Thanks

Yes.
