If you do the backup from isql, instead of the Ent Mgr,
there ie

BACKUP Database 'dbname' to 'backup device' WITH password
= {password}

You can write a simple DOS batch program to call isql and
redirect this command to the isql session. I prefer to do
admin functions this way and stay away from any GUI tools
for these functions.
