Dan,
I don't quibble at the newbie who really doesn't know what to do, and
yes, many times I have searched and modified my search criteria a
dozen times and still found nothing, but these people who keep posting
about how to backup in XP Home really get my goat, because the answer
has been posted not once, not twice, but hundreds of times.
They are either too lazy or to stupid to do a simple search on
"backup". I admit my patience is not one of my best features, which
is why I am so full of admiration for guys like Ken Blake, who don't
get upset or sarcastic, and just keep giving the answers.
In our ocker slang, goodonya Ken!
