I don't know if anyone can help on this but, we've just had this query
in TB! Forum:

So to check out what should happen I did the same thing using an old
backup file from before I upgraded to v1.62 and told it to do an
incremental backup to the same file.  I got exactly the same result as
the forum user - the error message, unable to open file 16-12-2002.tbk
- and when I checked where my file was (all 73,002kb of it) I found it
had been erased.  Using a file recovery program I scanned the drive
and found the file and restored it - but it came back at 21kb - so
something isn't working correctly and of course the backup file is now
incomplete.

The help file says you can do incremental backups but for some reason
(bug?) it's falling over trying.

Can anyone throw any light on this please? Or do I report it to
Ritlabs as a bug?
