<DIV><FONT size=2>Tom,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>From that point you have to go to Windows Explorer ( =
shortcut...press the Microsoft icon key on your keyboard along with the =
E
key).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>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.</FONT></DIV>
