Backup! Backup! Backup! Not only do I do regular backups, my most important files are kept on both my desktop, and my laptop. I have changed computers, crashed 3 hard drives, lost everything in system failures in addition to the personal mess-ups. By keeping redundant copies, I still have some data that was entered on my old KayPro from 1983 and transferred from one system to another. A copy is not enough. You must keep at least 2. dave *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 12/10/99 at 6:39 AM Ed Carwithen wrote: >At 01:23 PM 12/09/1999 EST, you wrote: >>I've been using the "old-fashioned" card system of tracking my customers for >>the past twelve years.
