Just to update everyone, I have not had much luck getting the program to run in debug mode. I used SGMON the other night when the backup job was running which seemed to be going fine, although I didn't realise the program doesn't actually save the file once the backup job has saved which I must say is pretty rediculous, but anyway....I have since done further investigation on the security levels of Exchange and found quite a good article which explains in detail to...and have made some changes to the security so I will test it again tonight and see how it goes. Failing this I think i will just go back to version 10d since I had no problems with that. Version 11 just appears to be too buggy.
