Recently I purchased a used 250MB tape drive, and along with the drive the person gave me his QuarterBack 5.0x (original disk and manual). So first thing I need to do is get registered under my name. I did purchase and register the original version of QuarterBack, but never purchased the 5.0x upgrade. Also, I do have a question on the buffer options of QB. If I set the Memory Type: to Any, it still uses chip memory instead of fast. So even with 2MB of chip, about 750K is the max I can set the Restore or Backup buffer sizes. And one other thing that I think you can do to improve the program is come up with an easier way to do multiple backups. Although the 'Multiple Backup' macro is usable, it would be a lot easier if QB just gave you a list requester of all available volumes, and then you just clicked on what volumes you would like to backup and in what order. // \X/ John – (Who enjoys harrasing the vendors)
