I am trying to schedule the full backup job ( occurs twice everyday).
Below is the script that I am using for the back up job.

BACKUP DATABASE RAIWeb
TO DISK='C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Backup\App1.bak'

I'd like to automatically change the name of backup file to App1 + the date and time that back up occurs + .bak

i.e. App10208061130.bak

How can I do this?

You can check out the code in the backup script that I wrote:

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
