mydatabase.ckp ?

Hi
A file has been generated in my MSSQL\backup directory called [myDB].ckp.
It's only a 6K binary file, but I've no idea what it is.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
GriffI remember seeing this. A CKP file gets created when you cancel a
backup/restore operation. I think it is used for restarting a failed
backup/restore operation.

Griff|||Cool, thanks.
I can in fact verify this - the update did fail (it wouldn't overwrite the
data and log files).
