When selecting a DB to back up (right click on a db, Backup and Restore) then back up the db with the 'Include CREATE DATABASE statement' checked in the options dialog, everything seems to generate OK, except on trying to RESTORE the same db to a new server it complains that the DB is not created. Upon looking at the SQL file that was generated it only has a `USE` statement not a CREATE DB statement.

Script generation has a bug it seems, or some other odd options have changed. I have used this just after upgrading to dbForge 7.3.131

Please try specifying the name of the database to restore in the 'Database' drop-down menu of the Database Restore wizard. In this case, there will be an attempt to execute CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS.

The db is listed and selected in the drop down. If you RIGHT CLICK and BACK UP DB from the explorer it becomes stuff into the DB field, however if you run the back up it has no create db statement in it.

Unless I'm missing something, it still does not generate the Create DB statement.

Could you please save the project file and send it to us for investigation?

You can send a reply straight to our support system at alexaATdevartDOTcom and supportATdevartDOTcom .

You might be using the project created in the previous version 7.2.

Please try creating the project with the latest version 7.3. This should resolve the issue.

I never use the project to do a backup, I always start from scratch and use the default settings as shown in the previously attached image of the options. So to make sure you understand the issue, I'm not loading a previously generated project. I simply do a back up and have the settings shown as to CREATE DATABASE but it doesn't. Don't have 7.2 Loaded anymore. Will just manually create the DB until the fix is out.

Thanks

Problem seems to be fix in 7.3.137.

Thanks!!
