Backup Dbase at a specified time

[Sheila.deJesus]

Hi!

I wanted to create a backup schedule since i already have the code to kick off users at a specified time. I've seen many posts here, but it's too complicated for a novice like me. Most of the posts i've seen here refers to windows task scheduling to do such.

Is there an automated backup schedule module that can be attached to my dbase? Without using windows task scheduler?

Thank you very much!

You have to build it.

(1) Use a always open or hidden form.
(2) Set the form's "Timer Interval" property to a specific number of 1,000ths of a second (1 is 1 thousandths of a second, 1000 is 1 second, 60000 is 1 minute,etc).
(3) On the forms "On Timer" event, execute the back up code.

It's really very simple.
