Backing up a DataBase

Hello:
I want to schedule a backup of a Database where a complete backup is done
keeping the Last 10 Complete BackUps Available at all times.
The Backup device file should be something like the DBName+SystemDateTime.
After 10days these backup files will be removed after being copied to
someother location and the whole process of starts all over again from
complete backup1 to complete back10..
Pls suggest some way of doing it.
Thank you.Hi
The Maintenace Wizard works on this priciple. You define the backup
retention period, and after xx days, the oldest backup is deleted.
If you need to copy the backup off to another server, setup a seperate job,
using XCOPY
Regards
Mike
