is there a way to load a script in to the back end of access to make it automatically save itself somewhere? as in create a backup i guess is what I want
But as in like an event driven occurance...
like at certain times or if certain things happen it automatically makes a copy of it and makes it like a hidden file that overwrites itself...
my code knowledge is VERY limited but Id like help with it so I can use it the correct way... again I think im probably asking too much but any help is GREATLY appreciated

Write a bat file... something like copy c:\....\yourfile c:\.....\backup\ and set up your schedual task to run your bat file, that's it....

 

[Mattymatt79]

Even if its over a network, schedualed task will work?

 

[partizan82]

the bat file will be on your computer.... so the schedual tasks will work... in copy command just use the path to the file you want to copy... it can be on the network too...

works for me... must work for you...
