Re: [foxboro] save_all scripts (was: Backup strategies - Best Practices?)

Hi all--

Just a quick follow up on save-all.  

We set our system up so that a copy of the save all files resides on the
host workstation and another is backed up onto an external drive.  My
interest is in restoring these files.  

Is it correct that I still need the save all files on floppies in order
to perform a load all?  

I checked on support website and didn't see anything that says
otherwise.

Thanks,

t

Just out of curiosity: Since Duc finds our script the better one and I
would 
run into you at a Fox gettogether, would I stand a chance in getting a
beer 
too?
You see, I mentioned the script was "free as in beer" but never had the
chance 
to experience this...

Just kidding
