Hi Goldy,

I'm afraid I could not clearly understand you. Do you want to create a database backup utility by utilizing RadControls for WinForms to build its UI?

Or, are you searching for a database backup utility and ask the community for some code?

Kind regards,

Hi Goldy,

I'm afraid I cannot help with a direct suggestion on this one.

You could check the mySQL documentation on available approaches for backing up/restoring a database. I'm pretty sure some CodePlex projects could give lots of hints as well.

Kind regards,

Hi Goldy, 

This isn't really related to telerik, but you will need to create a MySql Dump. See http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/MySQL/Backing-Up-Your-MySQL-Databases-With-MySQLDump/2/

Hope that helps
