Step 1 (SQL Server 2005 Management Studio Express):
Open up the SQL Server 2005 Management Studio Express from Programs menu.






Step 2 (SQL Server Database Backup Option):
Select  the SQL Server Database Backup option after right clicking the database for which you want to take backup.




Step 3 (SQL Server Backup Form):
Below is the database Backup form for the database that was selected for taking backup. Currently the default options have been highlighted which you can change if you want like backup file name or the path where you want to save the backup file. Finally click OK.


Step 4 (SQL Server Database Backup Successful):
Finally you will get message that the backup of database has completed successfully.
