Hey all

It's extremely easy to order SQL Server to do a backup via SPT.

I can monitor it's activity by checking the resulting backup (.BAK) file size from time to time.

What I want to do is obtain some kind of progress from SQL Server directly - including when the process has completed.

Lots of searching on google and in the help is not proving fruitful.

Any suggestions? Same for a restore, by the way.

Thanks
