    I am having problems scheduling backups. It seems pretty straight-forward,
    but will not work. I have tried a few different approaches.

    1. in EM, under Management>Database Maintenance Plans, I have tried to set
    up a Database Maintenance Plan, but whenever I try to schedule a backup, it
    acts like it is fine, but when you close the DM plan and re-open the plan,
    the schedule always is gone and does not exist. I have also gotten errors
    stating that the plan could not be created because of a "int to smallint"
    conversion error, which absolutely baffles me.

    2. In EM, under Management>Backups, I have tried to creat a backup with a
    schedule, but once again, the schedule disappears as soon as I close the
    dialog box and open it again.

    3. I have right clicked on the db, go to all tasks>backup database, but I
    encounter the same problem in that I cannot schedule a backup.

    The backup itself works fine but I cannot seem to schedule any backup.

    Please help. This is driving me nuts!!!
