Are you including JET in front when you are specifying the store?

The format should be something along the lines of:

"JET SERVERNAME\Microsoft Information Store\First Storage Group\"

Replacing SERVERNAME with the name of the server that you are backing up, and 
First Storage Group with the name of the Storage Group.  

I haven't got access to the system where this is setup, so it is from memory.

I have no problems doing it, the issue specifically is as stated, I am 
programmatically generating the cmd to backup it up from the shell and was 
hoping to specify what to backup by not using a bks file, like you can when 
backing up the root of a drive, or a single file/dir.

Specifying the store, even quoted like it is in the bks file doesn't work...

Thanks!
