presently I have in my Ini file BACKUP ON INTERVAL: 300 That backs up my applications every 5 min. It creates the file in the current working directory.

That has worked well for a backup method when dealing with corrupted data, however since it is on the same drive as the application if the drive was to fail I would lose the actual and backup files.

When reading the Sesame manual about Backup on interval it says a directory is created (if none exists) in the current working directory that is named after the application file.

I hoped to set the backup to a different drive or machine where my main offsite backup system would then swipe the files at periodic times throughout the day.

I interpreted the manual to mean that I could specify the application to backup and where to back it up in my ini file by modifying my statement  from

BACKUP ON INTERVAL: 300 //backing up all my application files
to
BACKUP ON INTERVAL: 300 myapp //backing up application myapp
or
BACKUP ON INTERVAL: 300 myapp  f:\databackup      //backing up application myapp to the d drive databackup directory.

However the only one I can seem to get to work is

BACKUP ON INTERVAL: 300 //backing up all my application files

Am I interpreting the manual incorrectly? Do I have the syntax wrong?

Thanks

Ray,

Thanks for the clarification!
