  Is there a way to restore the last backup with the RESTORE command line utility? I backup the database several times to the same device and need to use the RESTORE command to restore it but I want to restore the last backup that was done. Thanks.

  Run RESTORE FILELISTONLY  to get a list of the databases files and file numbers contained in the backup set.

  Then Run Restore command with FILE = file_numbes
