Field Description
Backup Directory
This box contains the name of the folder where the backup file will be placed. The
program initially creates and uses a default backup folder within the database folder
called backups. You can change the default folder in the backup options screen. You can
also make a one time change by selecting a different folder with the browse button (...)
located to the right of the backup file name.
Backup File Name
Click the browse button immediately to the right to select or enter a backup file name.
Alternately, you may double click on the name field to set the backup name to a default
value which can be configured in the backup options screen. The extension for the
backup file is always DFB.
