Hi,

You should be able to open your backup.sql file in any decent text editor and see for yourself if it is OK as it will be plaintext SQL which is human readable.

An alternative way to load in your backup.sql file is to simply use the mysql command line client like this:

shell> mysql -u Username -pPassword DBname < c:\backup.sql

Does MySQL Administrator give you an error message of any kind or just it just stop?

Kind Regards,
