HI,

i believe i have setup SQL Server 2000 to take scheduled backups every month. However, I can't find where i can check to make sure i have done this correctly, as when I return to the backup database option, all the previous information has disappeared. Is there a way to view what scheduled backups are due to take place? I need be sure that i have done it correctly.

EM->Management -> SQL agent-> Jobs -> select any job and check the NEXT RUN DATE

There will a be system table also, but no idea.

i can't seem to find where this is possible. Am i supposed to do this using Enterprise Manager? There doesn't appear to be a Management button/option/menu item etc.
