In using QuarterBack I am a little confused about setting the archive bits on a backup. If I make a backup once a month of my hard disk partitions and set the archive bit on it, will QB, the next time I do a backup, automatically backup only those files that have changed? If so, how does it write to the proper floppy in the backup set? What's the difference between this and an incremental backup? Why would I, as the manual states, need to keep an incremental set of floppies and a full backup set of floppies? That's a lot of floppies. I would just like to make a backup of my partitions once a month and only add the files that have changed to save time. No need to backup every file is there? RJ……….on AutoPilot
