Backing Up

As it can take a long time to create the full text index once the database
is restored I think it is a good idea to back up the full text catalog. What
is the best method for doing do ?
GMG,
Assuming you're using either SQL Server 7.0 or SQL Server 2000, you should
review KB article: 240867 (Q240867) "INF: How to Move, Copy, and Backup
Full-Text Catalog Folders and Files" at
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;240867
If you're using SQL Server 2005 (codename Yukon), the FT Catalog can be
backed up and restored with the database!
Regards,
John
