Which version are you running and what are the symptoms?  Did you place
MRBackup.init and MRBackup.xcld in the S: directory?  Or does it not even
get started?

I sent MRBackup V2.2 to the moderators quite a while ago and it hasn't appeared
yet.  I'm reluctant to email you a copy as it is quite large.  I'd be happy
to send you one via U.S. Mail.  Just send me a disk and return postage or
a letter with $2.00 in it:

	home: 401-846-7639

Version 2.2 has some one minor feature addition ("local" MRBackup.init files
for special projects) and I've added a little more variety to the speech
capability.  I'm toying with the idea of ARP-ifying MRBackup.  Does anyone
think that's a good idea?  I'd also like to add a File Utilities menu, adding
things like Compress/Decompress individual files, Delete, Copy, Rename, List.
I also saved a copy of Fred's article listing desirable features and will
revisit that soon.  


Anywho, sorry you're having trouble, but you can always get the latest
copy directly from me.  

Mark
