I'm not sure what you're asking here, so I'm going to be a little verbose... You need more than the single file ebase.103. You need to back up all the files like names_.103, but you can do it be dragging the entire directory, folder, that contains these files. Try it, then open the directory on the backup disk to make sure you got everything. > >>>I just purchased Windows 98 and FileMaker Pro 5.5 to put on my system. >>>I am going to do a clean install of the programs rather than an >>>upgrade.
