Database Maintenance PLan setup problem

Greetings,
I attempted to create a SQL Eneterprise Manager DB Maintenance Plan; however, it will not let me setup the Complete Backup Tab properly.
It will not let me select the DB Backup location or pick 2 Days to
remove files older than. It does not even show any drop down option when you
select 2 for Days, Months, Weeks, etc. for remove files older than.
Sometimes I get the following error when trying to specify the number of days to remove files after: Error 8114: Error converting data type
int to tinyint. I get this error when I go back into the Complete Backup tab
and try to put the information of backup location and remove files older than
options.
Has anyone seen this problems and/or has any idea on where to proceed? Let
me know.
Thanks in advance

May check this KBAhttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/q246199/ about locale settings. Try to seperate the databases into different plans in order to avoid overlapping issues. Satya SKJ

I am having the same problem. I can’t find anything online that will help me fix this. I am trying to avoid having to reinstall SQL server since our Cisco phone system runs from this SQL server. Please help.
