Some of our people have used the backup command in the past. Perhaps this is what you
were asking about. I recommend against it. Simply copy the database files to your
zip disk.
You will probably want to use the autochk command on the database prior to making a
copy.
The reason I recommend against using the backup command is, over 15+ years we have
almost never had a database go bad and lose data. We have lost a number of backups.
People get confused about what is in the backup. etc.
