Dick,

I used to use a ZIP but have since changed over to a USB Jumpdrive.  I have
a small batch file that zips the entire /save directory and copies it onto
the jumpdrive.  I have a copy of pkzip in the save directory and an icon on
the desktop that calls this batch file:

cd c:\Progra~1\dx4w603\save
pkzip -u -x*.~?? F:\dx4win\dx4w603.zip *.*

Works like a charm...

73 de Tom, K4NR
