Hi,
Is it possible to create a macro that will automatically save the whole database to a specific location, whether automatically or at the press of a button on the switchboard?
Again, this a for a project at school and I have no idea how to go about it.
thank you
Kris

One of several ways is to use the FileCopy command.

Is that to be used in the visual basic editor?
I saw a command called 'copydatabasefile' in the list of macro commands. I did try to get this to work but with no success. Is this also a possible way?
Thank you
