Tom,
I'll add to what Greg wrote about the backing up of PTBiz files. I too =
was a bit confused on procedure. Actually you can thank (smirk...) the =
author for not completing the necessary program keystrokes for making =
this a one keystroke procedure.
After it asks you whether you want to or not make a backup, if you say =
yes, it will prompt to another screen saying that the backup has been =
completed. However it really isn't.
>From that point you have to go to Windows Explorer ( shortcut...press =
the Microsoft icon key on your keyboard along with the E key).
In Windows Explorer hit the C: icon, and the +next to it. Then scroll =
down to Program Files. Again hit the + icon next to Program Files, then =
scroll down to the PTBiz file. Click on PTBiz then on the right side of =
the screen you'll see the date in which you last backed up, along with a =
7-8 digit number. That's your backup.
Now you have to copy that file ( top of page in Edit), then go to the =
File column (far left) and go to SEND TO. Press SEND TO and determine =
which drive you want to save the backup in. My A drive is the floppy =
drive, so I send it to a: drive. You'll then see it the information =
being transferred over to the disk drive. Done.
Again, make sure you take the time to THANK (@#?$)  the author for this =
programming shortcoming. He wonders why more of his programs never sold. =
Well, it's for reasons like this that makes the program laborious to =
use.

  Can someone tell me how to back up the "ptbiz" files? =20
  I`ve had the program for a couple months now and am getting nervous =
about not having a backed up version of my files.  I`ve tried signing up =
with the yahoo group but there is a glich going on with that and haven`t =
been able to get in ( I think that may have something to do with the =
fact I don`t elect to have their title bar istalled on my windows).=20
  thanks in advance,
  sincerely,
  Tom Carpenter
