[AccessD] SQL Server database

I have done it both ways.  The backup takes up less room and less time
copying.

Subject: [AccessD] SQL Server database


I need to replace my hard disk in my server with a bigger model.  This will
involve a complete re-install (it's time!).  The question is, do I need to
do a backup of the SQL Server database or will a new install be able to just
use an existing database?
