I finally added WinXP SP2 to my system yesterday (along with a lot of other security updates/patches through Automatic Updates) and now my backups and data exports are failing. Further, when I open my "Enterprise Manager" and try to export data ("All Tasks-Export-...") using the Import/Export Wizard, it won't let me select the "Export From" database.

WinXP SP2 turns on the Firewall (by default I think), could that be the problem?

Kristen,
That should be something else i think, as SQL should give it a try and give out an error message if its firewall related.
maybe try to apply sp4 to your sql again? see if that helps (along with all the latest patches if you already have?)

yeah, I am thinking service pack also. What SQL Server service pack are you running?
