Database backup: ideal export settings

To backup my database I use the export settings outlined in this article:
tech.blorge.com/Structure:%20/2009/01/10/how-to-back-up-your-wordpress-database-with-phpmyadmin/

I was wondering if these settings are sufficient to restore the Zencart database from a backup.

What's your take on this?

Thank you!

That's what the FAQ system is for: https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=103

Re: Database backup: ideal export settings

For what is worth, the only setting not included in that step by step article but that is included in the FAQ is this one:

CHECKED: Add DROP TABLE

That article is useful for beginners though, since it has screenshots.

My phpmyadmin has all the settings in the FAQ automatically selected, other than the one above.
