How about automatically zip, copy or FTP anything you want whenever you want in the background while you work! Rbase databases can be open, static db and multi user doesn't matter, dial up, DSL, T1, network or local drives. Create multiple backups, overwrite existing, your choice. Password protect, no problem!
You need the "Active Backup Expert Professional", free to try, costs $45.00 and worth 10 times as much. http://www.orionsoftlab.com/abe/backup.htm I love this program, can you tell? I provide FTP storage if anyone needs it, contact info below.
