   Not sure why you would set up an SQL user. To backup the databaes   
   you would say;   
      
   BACKUP DATABASE TheDB TO DISK = 'C:\temp\TheDB.bak' WITH INIT   
      
   The file path is of course an example. However, the service account   
   for SQL Server needs to have access to the location, so it's not a   
   good idea to select a folder under C:\Users.
