I don't think it does. It shouldn't. If it does, it's not worthy of its name. What you can do, is * rename the original file * open the backup for reading, and the original file name (the file should not exist) for writing, and in a loop, in plain Perl, read/write the whole data fork * set file creator and type. -- Bart.
