It means you have to pre-label all your disks, though. Did I screw this up? I don't think MRBackup was the one I dismissed. The thing I didn't like about it was that it required preformatted disks, and wasn't particularly fast. Sure, it prompts if you want to format the disk, but I want it to assume none of my disks are formatted. Please, correct me if I'm wrong . . . -tom -- /-- Tomas Rokicki /// Box 2081 Stanford, CA 94309 / o Radical Eye Software /// (TAMU EE '85) (415) 326-5312 \ / | . . . or I \\\///Join CCFFAALW---Concerned Citzens V | won't get dressed \XX/Fighting For An Acronym-Less World
