One way (not necessarily the best) might be an audit trail if done in such a way that you could rebuild the entire database from the audit trail. Then you need only back up the audit entries since the last backup. However, you have to keep all backups, or once in a while do a 'fresh start' backup where you take all audit entries. There's another thread starting about audit trails, you might want to check there. Kev
