Running the Previous year Backup runs a file called oldyear.bat In it you can put any backup commands you wish such as using Fastback Plus, the DOS backup command or a tape backup routine. A suggestion: create an archive file of the new previous year data files (fam##.*, hist##.*, proc##.*) where ## is the last 2 digits of the year ending and backup zip file. You then automatically have a double backup - one on your hard disk and one on tape or floppy disk to take home as fire insurance. This screen is being run from the oldyear.BAT found on this directory.
