Well- I backed up following this onto my external hard drive and
most of the stuff onto a CD, too
I don't have a copy of 7.0 - I downloaded it from the web a while back...
but not sure about where the safest place is to do that...
It may be that there are too many support issues to keep using that...
a bit scary... I liked the way it worked - um- until it failed :_)
thanks for that link that at least saved files for me.
