    What kind of isolated storage are you referencing?

    How about:

    • create a stored proc to perform the backup.

      BACKUP DATABASE [Foo]
      TO DISK = N'\\server\directory\Foo.BAK' WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT,
      NAME = N'Foo-FullBackup', SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
      GO

    • call this stored proc on the SQL Server from your C# client code

    • depending on your needs (isolated storage?) use System.IO.File.Move() to move the .BAK file from its source to your destination.
