BACKING UP YOUR FILE
BACKING UP YOUR FILE
FILER's ability to copy, rename, or otherwise manipulate your files makes
it the application you'll use to back up files.
Let's say you want to keep a backup copy of your Phone Book (and you
do not have a RAM card). Enter FILER, move the cursor to _DAT and press
(ENTER). This moves you into the directory where your Phone Book file is
kept. To find your Phone Book, look for the file(s) with the 3-letter,
PBK extension (i.e. MAIN.PBK, or something like that). If you're not sure
of the name of your Phone Book, press (PHONE). Your phone filename will
be listed in the upper left of your PHONE screen.
Back in FILER put your cursor on the name of your Phone Book file. Press
(F2) (COPY), type in C:\, and finally press (ENTER). You have just created
a back-up of your Phone Book on the main C drive. Find that backup file
by first moving your highlight bar to the line at the top of the screen
(the one that says " .. View Up "). Press (ENTER) and you will be back
in the main C directory. Move the highlight bar down the list until you
find your backed up Phone Book file. If anything ever happens to your Phone
Book you have a back-up copy as of today's date in your main C drive directory.
If you have a RAM card, be sure to back up your PHONE, APPT, or other
crucial files to it. Instead of copying the files to C:\ as instructed
above, copy them to A:\.
