   Howdy Tom and Ben,   
      
   I should had written   
   Start - Programs - Accessories - System Tools - Backup   
      
   That is where I was to see the Properties  for Backup.   
      
   What I see in the GUI screen and try to remember in MultiMail DOS gets   
   scrambled up sometimes.   
      
   But You knew what I meant anyway, didn't You?   
      
   ... 35 million laws are trying to enforce the 10 Commandments
