How to use delphi to make backup?

[Nour Nawar]

Hi all,

I want to make backup of my database (Mysql 5.1) using Delphi 2007 under Windows XP SP2

I use this code:
ShellExecute(Handle, 'open',
PChar('D:\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin\mysqldump.exe'),
PChar('--host=localhost -u root -ppassword --log-error=error.txt' +
' -d db_config > d:\1.sql.gz'), nil, 1);
But it does not work.

Any suggestion.

Best regards.
