You need to assign verbose to true, and you also need to add a service output. If you do not do both of these, execute() returns back instantly while the actual backup/restore is running in another thread. So you don't know the outcome. I typically define an empty method for the service output. I then wrap the whole thing in a try...catch block to know if I succeeded or not. void fbBack_ServiceOutput(object sender, ServiceOutputEventArgs e) { // Just here so we have something to call. } ---- Snippit of code performing a backup --- backupSvc.ServiceOutput += new ServiceOutputEventHandler(fbBack_ServiceOutput); backupSvc.Verbose = true; try { backupSvc.Execute(); // result is true } catch (Exception e) { // result is false } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.
