Hi
I'm running Access 2000 on a mixture of Windows 2000 and XP clients attached
to a 2000 server. I have a number of Access databases saved in a Company
share on the server, along with a variety of other files. The entire contents
of the share is backed up nightly to tape, using Symantec Backup Exec 10d.
In recent months I've noticed that mystery "backup" files seem to appearing
in the share, which I haven't consciously done anything to set up. So for
example if I have a file MyDatabase.mdb, then a new file
MyDatabase_Backup.mdb might appear in the same folder on the share. These
only seem to appear intermittently, and if I delete one it might not reappear
for some time.
Does anyone have any idea where these might be coming from? Is there some
kind of autobackup function in Access which I'm not aware of?
Thanks for any help you can give.
