Thanks John, I found this out by experimentation and set up my schedules
exactly as you stated. Its hard to remember sometimes that VO commands are
not all one can use - regular system commands and keys should also be tried.

Hello Phil:
I am only going to talk about scheduling backups.
When you create a schedule instead of using the VO keys all you have to do
is the tab and space bar. For checking which week of the month, tab over
and hit the space bar. I tab then shift tab making sure I made my desired
selection.
Same holds true for each day of the week.
The only time I need to interact is when setting the time.
Take care,
John

Hi Phil
The easiest way is to simply interact, no need for mouse clicks.

I registered SuperDuper today and have a few questions please concerning
scheduling.
first of all, As I navigate the scheduling window with cursor tracking
on and the mouse set to follow VO, each checkbox reports being checked,
and pressing VO space to uncheck causes the default button to be clicked
(it does not uncheck the checkbox). It seems that dragging the mouse
along automatically checks any box it lands on. So, I found I have to
navigate to the desired box, then turn cursor tracking off before moving
away from the checkbox - seems kind of klunky but it works.
But My big question is this:
If I want to have several bootable clones going back two or three weeks
is it necessary to have two or three partitions, one each for each
boottable clone?
Basically, I want to implement the strategy wherein I can go back
several weeks to a clean system in the case that one or more saved
backups is corrupted, or contains the same problem I would be trying to
recover from.
I have a 2TB firewire 800 external HD, and its empty, so I can
re-partition it as much as I like. With my limited understanding of
SuperDuper, I was considering making 4 small partitions one each for a
scheduled bootable clone, but that doesn't sound right either.
I'd be glad for any backup strategy ideas, concrete or otherwise, that
you care to offer.
