I've come across a problem which my earlier version of QuarterBack seemed to handle better than the new one: If I accidentally (oops..) pop out the floppy that is currently being written to, the error pop-up it gives me suggests that there is a problem with the disk, and that I should substitute a different one. If I just try to replace the disk, it complains that that disk is a backup disk, and I can't use it. I have to substitute a different disk. My backup disks are numbered from 1 to 110, so substituting a different disk for the one I have labeled "43" is somewhat of a pain, as that means that number 43 isn't number 43 anymore. I realize that this is a problem that is my own fault, but like it or not it seems like a common error to pop out the wrong floppy during a backup. I think my old QB yelled at me to put the darn disk back in. That would be much preferable to the way the new one is reacting. Steve Anderson P.S. This is the first time I've been over here in AmigaVend for a long while, so forgive me if this problem has already been beat to death.
