Is there any way to backup and then restore a CRM database (version 20011 or 4) from inside the database?
For example in NAV you can choose Tools-->Backup and then Tools-->Restore.
Is there something similar in CRM or the only way is through SQL server?

You can Export customisations (a sort of Backup).
The NAV option to backup is quite likely there as a legacy to its proprietary DB days, and the backup you can do in NAV of a SQL DB will export in a proprietary format and won't be able to be restored as a SQL backup (please correct me if i'm wrong).
Is there a reason you cant use the SQL functionality then?
