Explanation:
This version of Backup clearly creates security copies
of your DBF files from inside your application.
It is very useful to forget about using "outside" software
and start using your own. Every app. that you develop,
needs to have a security option, that enables you, or
your customer, to be safe.
That why we created Backup. To ensure you that your solution
to your needs and your customers is satisfied.
Registering you obtain source code, which you can modify
to your specific needs. For example: you can force your
user TO MAKE BACKUP COPIES EVERY DAY. Just add a simple
variable verification, and DONE!!
You are entitled to use this source and to modify it to
your own needs, but not to lucrative purpose. You can't
sell it, rent it, give it away, but you can tell your
friends to register too!
You don't have to worry about space in diskettes also.
Backup is so efficient, that can detect disk full, and
automaticly prompts for a next disk. Also, if your app.
always use the same .dbf or the same disk directory, we
created a set up file, were you can indicate that infor-
mation.

your DBF files you want to backup. Example:
