Hi Niall,
Ha! I'm not familiar Sql Server so I'd assumed this meant a text log created during the backup to say what it does. Did appear bizarre they were marketing the fact it could do:
> backup.log
at the end of a backup. Or indeed, the value of eliminating the log file!
Thanks for the enlightenment although it makes me even less likely to want to download the trial!
