Who started the incredulity? Hint... check the archives for the phrase: >>> why would anyone want to keep a document separate from >>>the application that created it? >As for those who find that keeping their data separate from their >applications so they can back up their data files more easily, that is >great, but it is not the only way to approach backups. Backing up is only reason #2. Reason #1 is handling application updates, which have a strong tendency to include trashing or rewriting the old application folder... Exercise for the reader: what does this entail if you've stored documents with the app? Multi-user configuration is about reason #14. There are other good reasons in between. I listed several in my previous message. Cheers, P. PS: What's with the archives? I'm still getting them on something more like a sub-hourly basis rather than once a day. --------------- <http://www.bek.no/~pcastine/Litter/> --------------- Peter Castine | From the Litter Power Thesaurus: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Statistics: lp.stacey [EMAIL PROTECTED] | _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
