I use a series of batch files to copy data between my laptop and desktop. Here'as one -- FLSH2DSK.BAT echo Copying files from Flash drive to Steve's desktop computer pause e: cd \ arj x -u -y j:asksam arj x -u -y j:inmagic arj x -u -y j:FHSTrans arj x -u -y j:PAFfiles arj x -u -y j:asksam4 g: cd \ arj x -u -y j:Textfile arj x -u -y j:jotnote j: cd \legacy\data bac *.* e:\legacy\data cd \legacy\pictures bac *.* e:\legacy\pictures cd \ bac outlook.pst c:\windows bac *.hjt e:\Treepad pause exit Works for me. And doing that way means I have recent backups on my Desktop, Laptom AND flash drive. Keeping the data only on the flash drive seems to be less secure, somehow - what if you leave it in your shirt pocket and it goes through the washing machine? -- Steve Hayes E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: http://www.geocities.com/hayesstw/stevesig.htm Phone: 083-342-3563 or 012-333-6727 Legacy User Group guidelines can be found at: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp To find past messages, please go to our searchable archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup%40mail.millenniacorp.com/ To unsubscribe please visit: http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/LegacyLists.asp
