[Dxbase] a .bat file backup system

[FireBrick]

I've spent the morning re-organizing my .bat file to save all my DXBase 
data/files/settings, etc.

I put the file on my web site and is available for download.

you can download it and edit it with Notepad to fit the file/dir names you use.
As you can see I use shorter/easier to type directory names.
When you finish edititing, save it with a .bat extension.
I made a shortcut on my desktop for manual backups. I also have Windows Scheduler to 
automagic backups at night in case I forgot.
I use Xcopy with the attributes of /D /Y /R so it only backs up files that have changed 
since the last backup.

If you wish to cut/paste, you can use the following text.

NOTE:!!!!
This is NOT a replacement for the DXButility.
And make sure you test your version for typos before relying on it as your sole life 
jacket.
