Newbie?: Backing up 2 db's

[Its Just Me]

Sorry if this is not the correct section for this question but I did not see a section relating to backups specifically.

I have two db’s that I am working with, I have defined the file reference to db #2 so that I can bring up the needed info to db #1.

My question is about backup…if I do a backup via the standard method, I am only backing up the working db #1.

Is there a script that I can use to backup both db’s in one motion.

Thanks,

Jim

What is your "standard method"? Using Server or not? Why not back up both files at once?

Ender,

No Im not using FM server (hope to after I learn the basics), Rignt now I am using FM8A. I am calling the standard method: File/Save Copy As/...

I currently back up each one however, I guessed that there must be an easier way that would backup both at once.

Thanks,

Jim

Nope, you have to run a "save as" script in each file. Only FM Server can back up all the files at the same time.

That is what I guessed since I could not find any info on the subject.

Thanks for the information.
