What a ridiculous objection! Obviously, you'd do backups on a REGULAR BASIS, just like you do with backups of your local PC. Sometimes you lose data because a backup was not run since, say, last night, and you did work today that got lost, but the point is that with a regular backup, you can never lose more data than the amount entered since the last backup. And, obviusly, one way of doing that is to do data entry work, and when finished download your backup. As long as you never miss skip the backup download after data entry, you'd have no possibility whatsoever of losing any data. -- David W.
