I'm not trying to convince anyone. I personally would discourage placing the live .fdb in the DropBox folder. But directing backups to the DropBox folder is ok IMO. Backing up, no matter where you place them, is a good idea. And off-premise, in this case the "cloud", is even better. Keep in mind that there are security issues with placing your data in the "cloud". I believe DropBox recently had an issue with allowing anyone who simply knew your email id to access your data (wasn't asking for or checking the password). -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools/Custom Programming) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools/index.htm http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools NOTE TO LUG USERS: Use plain text if you want me to read your post.
