That is what we are here for. If you have any questions, ask on. For more
complex backup and archive tasks the tags work great. They probably need
some explanation, so I will provide an example. Adding a Job with the
following target directory will create a separate directory structure of the
source directory, "Finance", in this case. The new structure will create a
new folder each new year and subdirectories each month of that source
folder. Each new month, a new folder is created and the entire Finance
folder is archived. Each night at 1 am, the default backup time, any
changes to the archive folder is updated. Therefore, at the end of each
month, a copy of everything in that folder is preserved. I do not do this
for many folders, just the very important folders, since it creates so many
copies.
Target directory:
C:\Users\Don\Documents\Finance\<yyyy>\Month<mm>\
The portion"Month<mm>" will create a new folder each month, such as
"Month01" for January, and so on in a folder for the current year, such as
"2010".

Thanks Don for clearing that up. I just had it the wrong way around, that
for each task I needed one Job name, and therefore would need to backup
multiple folders in one job name.
Straightforward, now I have the correct overview.
Thanks again,

Karen's Replicator is very flexible and powerful. However, I do not think
there is a way to have more than one target or destination directory for
each job name. I have asked Karen and the number of possible jobs is
unlimited! So just create a series of jobs with similar names. I use at
least 10 jobs. I even use the tags in target directory names in order to
automatically keep archives of certain folders. It also works great
across
a home network to make backups of important data to another computer.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Karens Replicator. Help needed
Hi all,
I have installed Karens Replicator to be able to make back ups of a
number
of folders, but am unable to find how to have more than one folder
replicated per job name.
Am I missing something with Jaws? It seems quite accessible just tabbing
around, or is this something I need to use the Jaws cursor for?
I was hoping to back uphalf a dozen folders with one job name, & a few
others with another Job name. Is this possible?
Any help much appreciated...
Thank you,
Paul from Aust
