In MS ACCESS 2003 the database will automatically create a copy of the back-end and add "_Backup.mdb" to the name of the file if the database crashes.
  • What does MS ACCESS 2010 do for a .mdb back-end?
  • What does MS ACCESS 2010 do for a .accdb back-end?
Does it append the word "Backup", or "Copy" or (1)/(2) etc? I can't get the database to fail in ACCESS 2010 like I could in ACCESS 2003 to know what the backup file name will be. We run a DOS script for the ACCESS 2003 databases that deletes any file with the word "backup" in the name and want to do the same in the ACCESS 2010 DOS scripts.

Thank you.
 
It does the same, adds _backup to the file.
