Re: [LegacyUG] REF file within zipped Legacy Backup
Thank you Dennis Kowallek CE Wood, you were absolutely right.When I turned 'Set Relationships' back on through the Tools menu the backup file size returned to its previous level.I was aware that I had turned it off a while back but never connected that action to the file extension 'rel'. Talk about having a red face! Sorry to have added to the number of queries. Thanks again. Ken, in Ottawa - Original Message - From: Dennis M.

RE: [LegacyUG] REF file within zipped Legacy Backup
Relationships. On the Backup page, under Data Files, you can specify what you want backed up. One of those choices is Relationships.

I recently noticed that the size of my total backup file had dropped from where it was a couple of weeks ago. When doing a comparison of the files that make up my current backup to those in the earlier one I noted that the REL file which was part of the zipped backup two weeks ago was no longer included in the current zipped backup. Is this serious? Thanks in advance.
