Backup MS Access Database

Mar 30 2010 9:51 AM
Hi,

Would you please give me your opinion on the following:

I want to give the user the option to backup data, that is, save a copy of the database he is working on currently.
I am using:  System.IO.File.Copy(...);, which just copies the database to another location. 
Then I would give him the option to restore, which basically copies the backed up db to the original.

Is that good practice? 
I think it's enough as a solution, but are there any disadvantages please?

Thanks
