I should qualify the nothing response, if you mean the log file in the
backup
utility then nothing. If you refer to another log file, please point me
to
it so I can check.

Thanks...

I have set Backup to run on a weekly basis thru the appropriate screens
in
the utility. However, the backups never take place. Why is this??

I am backing up my Outlook files to an external hard drive.

Any help is appreciated...
