Backing up SQL Databases

Hello:
How do you change the scheduled database backups in SQL Server 2000?
We have a scheduled backup of a production database that is run once a day.
We need to change it to update once a week; however, no matter what we do, we
can't remove or edit the existing backup schedule.
In the SQL Server Backup dialog box, regardless of whether the Destination
is removed and/or a new one is created, or if the Schedule is changed, none
of these new settings are ever saved. Why is this? What am I missing to get
around this?
Thanks,
TroyCheck your SQL Server agent jobs.

I am logged in under the SA account and trying to update the job in
enterprise manager. Is there something else I should be looking at or
resetting?
