Aiko,
Here's a snippet of code we use to do a daily backup:
set var day text = (tdwk(.today))
pause 3 using 'Backing up Database -- one moment, please!'
set var directy = (sget(.day,3,1))
disc
copy *.rb? &directy
cls

Subject: [RBASE-L] - back-up
Dear all,
My clients discovered recently that their Rbase Files are corrupted and
need to go back to a few days back.
But unfortunately the network administrator did not back up the data
everyday as they were supposed.
I thought that to save their predicaments, I should recommend to a backup
system for their own(my clients) in their office.
Have you had any similar experience? Do you do your own back-up beside the
network back-up?
I am thinking to let them back up the data every day onto a CD. they would
have 5 CDs and they can keep writing over for Monday through Friday
respectively.
Can you think better way to go about this ?
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Shivering in DC,
Thank you.

Tip of the Day #2: Using the TOP and LEFT coordinates for PRNSETUP
Supported Versions:
. R:BASE 7.6 for Windows (Build: 7.6.1.30206 or higher)
. R:BASE C/S:I 7.6 for Windows (Build: 7.6.1.30206 or higher)
. R:BASE Turbo V-8 for Windows (Build: 8.0.15.30206 or higher)
There are times when you wish you could display the PRNSETUP
window at a particular position on the desktop, instead of in
the center of your screen.
Using the latest updates, now you can use the TOP and LEFT
coordinates to achieve your goal.
Here's how:
PRNSETUP +
OPTION CAPTION Select Printer +
|TOP 10 +
|LEFT 10 +
|THEMENAME R:BASE Rocks!
RETURN
The PRNSETUP windows will be displayed at your desktop's top 10
and left 10 screen pixels, with a caption "Select Printer" and
the theme of R:BASE Rocks!
You may change the TOP and LEFT coordinates as well as select
one of the 30 supported R:Themes in R:BASE to suit your R:BASE
application.
In addition to PRNSETUP, the OPTION for TOP and LEFT coordinates
are also supported for #WHERE, CHOOSE, DIALOG and PAUSE commands.
Enjoy and make sure to have fun!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
