Access Backup

[Keith]

In Access 2002, how do I set up to auto create a Backup of my database at a
certain time each day, or how do I do a manual backup. I have seen
occasionally a .BAK file created but don't know why or when this should
happen, any help or advice on the Backup system would be very useful.

Thanks

Keith

Just a thought, it may not be a .BAK file but a backup.mdb that it creates

What about Windows Backup? You didn't specify what OS you're running but
you might check under Start | Programs | All Programs | Accessories | System
Tools...

I do not have access to 'WindowsBackup' as this is a company system and is
not part of the user accessible programs, I am using XP. I notice that
occasionally these 'xxxxxxx_backup.mdb' files are created and would like to
have some control over it, is it possible?

I'm really sad to see that there was no solution posted for this. I know
there are more who would like to know how to code this function. I know it is
possible.
