How to backup your SQL Database using Helm Control STEP 1: Login into Helm Control  From there select My Domains  Next pick the domain where you have a database in use. Here is an example  Then choose My Little Admin which is the portal to your SQL Server database  And then click Login into My Little Admin  Next you should be presented with this screen:  Complete your database name, login and password - Please note these will be different, so you need to know what they are  Once you've logged in select Tools  And then choose Backup Database within your management folder  You may be presented with another screen but again choose Backup Database  Now select Choose Database - and you have a drop down box. Choose the database you want to back up  When you've done that it will automatically advance to this:  Click OK and then give your database a name and the details you want. Examples could be: Name - IDONTCARE Description - 10112008 (something simple like the date you did it  Once you have your backup file  You can download it safely to your hard drive. You can repeat this step as often as you prefer ------------- http://www.123simples.com/" rel="nofollow - Visit 123 Simples Web Design |

Hmmm....Is it just me or are these instructions no longer correct? Aren't you guys using DotNetPanel now? Or is there still access to Helm somewhere I'm missing... Dave. ------------- - http://www.davemackey.net/" rel="nofollow - Dave Mackey - Virtual Home. |

Hi Dave The subject was correct at the time when people were using the Helm Control Panel. I have now updated the post title to reflect this, and will post a new topic for Dot Net Panel users  ------------- http://www.123simples.com/" rel="nofollow - Visit 123 Simples Web Design |

Yes we are using DotNetPanel for our new Windows 2008 hosting accounts, but many of our customers are still using Helm on the older accounts. The instructions are much the same with the accounts that use DotNetPanel as you would use the same MyLittleAdmin and MyLittleBackup tools to backup and restore databases. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |
