You don't have to develop or buy anything. You can use mysqldump in
conjunction with a shell script to do what you want, and automate it with
either the Windows Scheduler (on Win32) or a cronjob (Linux, *nix).

Subject: backing up mySQL database ?
Hello,
I'm looking to either development a software application that will allow me
to automatically at scheduled intervals backup my mySQL databases. I would
like to save the table structures and data. I;ve used mySQL Front that
allows you to backup these, but I need it to be automated e.g every 2
hours...
Can someone point me in the right direction. I will look to develop the
software is Delphi 6 or C++ Builder 5.
The other option I have is to purchase some software that will allow me to
do this. Any suggestions or recommendations ?
Thanks for any help and advice.
Neil
