SQL Server backup question

[nuejimmy]

I am backing up my SQL Server 2k databases using BackupExec 9.1 on a Full/Differential rotation every 3 days.
My question pertains to backing up the database manually in Enterprise Manager. Say I need to backup the database and restore it on a test server. If I do this in Enterprise Manager, will it screw up my differential scheme in Backup Exec? E.G, if I had to restore using Backup Exec, would I need to use the full backup done through Enterprise manager since it was the most recent full backup done on the database?

Thanks

the answer to your question is yes..

As the differential will look at the last full backup, whether it is done in BE or with SQL and take it from there.

BE backs up the SQL database with the exact same commands as what Enterprise manager does.
