    My post was not a knock. It speaks more to my sloppy reading and assuming what I thought it should be. It was a great question!

    Easy question but I have to learn to read. I picked the one that it wouldn't work on not the 5 it would. I guess I thought logically that would be the sensible way to ask the question. Oh well?

    Got it right, but agree that picking the one that doesn't allow compression makes more sense than selecting the 5 that do allow it. Other than that, a nice question. Thanks.

    The purpose of the question was to reinforce the fact that Microsoft introduced backup compression for SQL Standard edition starting with 2008 R2. I thought about asking the question that way, but concluded that made the question too easy and it's already somewhat easy as is.

    No excuse for me...saw the choose, but blurry eyes read 3 instead of 5. Didn't know the answer, but reasoned it was added to standard only recently. Good reasoning, bad reading.

    Straight forward - especially with the "pick 5" approach.:-D
