How to create seperate Differential Backup Files

Instead of creating one file with the different Differential Backups in it, I
would like to create seperate files so I can script it easier - like the DB
Maintenance Plan wizard generates a job which creates seperate files for each
of the Full Backups.
I cannot seem to find the option to specify this thru the GUI/Script for
Differential DB Backups though. Using All Tasks->DB BAckup (only way to
create diff backup except via script?) you only get the choice of Append or
Overwrite Existing Media. Or alt, how do I specify which Backup in my file of
multiple backups to restore via script.
Any help much appreciated -Thanks

|||Thanks Uri,
I read the article. It was good but similar to the Backup Strategy's I've
read in the Online Books in SQL Server.
I have the plan I want to implement but was stuck on my original question.
