You can do the backup as often or as frequently as you like. it will pick the version before the time to specify. > When Does it do a Full backup? The first time you run it. But then each subsequent backup you do becomes the full one with the older files being the "incrementals". Basically, it keeps a full mirror of the directory you backup, plus the information needed to reconstruct older or deleted files. -- Neil Bothwick God: What one human uses to persecute another.
