You know how you are supposed to go to start, all programs then accessories
and point to system tools and click backup, well the word backup is not
there. It was there yesterday Aug 22, I saw it , I did nothing in my computer
deleting or moving anything. I come home from work and was going to try to
backup a file or something , because I never used that yet. Well the word
backup is missing. Anyone know what I should do? Thanks for you help, Barbara

Entirely grateful to pple willing to help out on questions being asked here.
Thx very much Ken. My job was actually on the line coz I couldn't run an
effecient backup. Until I saw Barb's question of course. Another question: is
it possible "to make a folder private" (like I can with a worksheet), without
having to enter a password that applies to the user ?
