Paul, thanks to a firmly worded and clearly written article of yours I'd read a while ago http://www.sqlskills.com/BLOGS/PAUL/post/Misconceptions-around-the-log-and-log-backups-how-to-convince-yourself.aspx, I got this one right.

I agree with the comment someone posted on that web page above: it would be helpful if BOL adopted more explicit language about this issue.

Yours,

Rich M.
