I have heard on the grapevine that you can now backup specific tables in SQL Server 2005. However, I cannot find anything in BOL (or am using the wrong search criteria). Can anybody verify whether this is just a viscious rumour or it can be in fact done. If the latter, then how or provide a link to the information in msdn or wherever.

Thankyou

I don't think backing specific tables in SQL 2005 is possible in direct way. However, you can place some frequently used tables on some filegroup and back up only that specific filegroup.
