I have a question. My database is split. I want a backup copy of
my tables in another database on a different machine. Should I
use transferdatabase to get the info into the backup copy or
should I link the backup copy tables to the original database?
What happens if the original databse gets corrupted? Can I get
the table info into the original databse easily?
Any help appreciated, I'm still a little confused on this issue.
Thanks

The best answer to that is neither transferdatabase nor linking is a
real backup solution. Simply exit the application and copy the back
end to your archive area usaing Windows.
I prefer to also rename the file to add a datestamp in hte filename,
so that you can keep last night's backup, and the night before, and
before. Often corruption will only manifest itself several daya
after occurence.
If your primary backup gets trashed, you simply copy the most recent
uncorrupted backup from the archive over the corrupt .mdb
