Remarks

The Backup2 object extends the functionality of the Backup object for use with features that were introduced in SQL Server 2000. It also inherits the properties and methods of the Backup object. With the Backup2 object, you can:

  • Retrieve or specify a backup or media set password from SQL Server 2000 and later.

The properties of the Backup2 object may not be compatible with instances of SQL Server version 7.0 or earlier.
