That's great, no really. I'm lucky that ctrl-s is an ingrained habit. In my
neck of the woods if a power pole gets knocked over gets knocked over, we can
be out for forty-eight hours. It's a bit dissapointing not to be able to try
it, but then nothing really works with win98 anymore. Is this a set of
routines for the windows kernell or something Mike did?
Congratulations.

Hi Jack,
Just imagine. You've been working furiously on a document, or documents, all
morning. You have been so busy, you have forgotten the golden Ctrl + s rule to
save your work. Suddenly the mains power goes. Your thunderous issue of
expletives blister the paint on the walls.
But thankfully Autosave was turned on by default, so when the power comes
back on again, and you run DBT, you are told that there are one or more
autosaved files. You ask DBT to open them, and hey presto, there is your work,
and moreover, it is at the stage it was no more than five minutes before the
power went off.
See Global: Autosave Options for the settings, which are fairly self
explanatory.
However at this time, it doesn't work with Windows 98 or Windows ME, but the
Beta log does say this will be fixed before release.
George.

Back on board finally. Haven't installed this. What's autosave, anyway.
Aplauding duxbury in advance.

Come on guys! Where's the round of applause for Duxbury for including an
Autosave?
I'm sure they'll be happy to pull it, if none of you want it! (Smile)
George
