Thanks a lot. I resolved the issue by putting in the
following code into my schedule job :

BACKUP DATABASE C
  TO DISK = 'd:\backup\C_Backup.bak'
  WITH
    NAME = 'C_Backup' ,
    MEDIANAME = 'd:\backup\CBackup4.bak',
    MEDIADESCRIPTION = 'Daily Backup File',
    MEDIAPASSWORD = 'MyPassword',
    INIT

>redirect this command to the isql session. I prefer to
do
>admin functions this way and stay away from any GUI tools
