: [LegacyUG] less steps to make a back up?
I preferred the backup of v.6, I too add the date to my backup, and
usually keep at least two on my hard drive and one on an external drive.
I have more than one family file, and I've always backed up each one
individually

One thing Legacy could add to make backups better is the option to
automatically add the current date to the backup file name. Adding it manually
is error

The PR on it said it was supposed to make backups easier. I haven't
noticed.

Well, this has really started something. It just seems we should be able to
name a backup and say go without having to click in the box, put in the
file name, then click in another box to begin the backup. It's a small
price to pay, but I hope it will be easier in the future.
I love the idea of

Adding a date to the backup should be a user-selectable option. If the
user decides to use the auto-dating backup feature, then there should
also be an option as to the date format used with the backups. My
computers are set up to display the date in
Windows already does this.

I agree. It is precisely what I had in mind and is how most professionally
designed backups do it. And - it should not really add much code at all.
Less than a dozen lines of code at most.
I urge the Legacy programmers to consider it seriously.

Hi all,
I have Legacy 7, and backing up seems to take more steps now. First, I have
to tell it what to name the file, and then I have to back it up.
I like to use keyboard shortcuts whenever I can (instead of the mouse). Here
is what I seem to need to do:
Alt + F, B. This gets me to the backup
You could drag the Backup icon onto the toolbar.

Hi
Thanks, but that means using the mouse to access it instead of the keyboard,
right? I would like to use the keyboard. It seems like there should be a
shortcut or that the backup button should have priority over some of the
other items that are on the tab journey.
