Database backup...
I´m trying to make backup and restore of Interbase databases, from my application. Somebody knows an easy way for this, or a component that perform it? Thanks!!
Hi bijoyn, is there also an easy way for Access tables? Just copy those files too?

Hi, people! Ok, the comments are valid, but is not that I want. I need something that perform the following tasks:
1- Compress the database (with data).
2- Create a backup file in floppy, surely in severals volumes.
I need make this programatically, preferently mantaining the transparency for the user.
Thanks for the feedback!!

The easiest way that I have used is to copy the '.GDB' file onto a tape or catridge. This is particularly useful when I need to talk to two databases by just changing the path of the interbase data file in the alias.
