>my advice backups should named with date (oct2005.zip, dec2005.zip ... ). because it befall me ( I don't know if it occurs at vfp too) with foxpro dos .scx files; a .scx file broken but you don't know, because you don't touch that and it stayed as compiled. When you try to modify that... And your backups has broken .scx files, because you update backups with same name every time... :(

Yes, it also happened to me, long ago. Something got corrupted and the copy in the single backup was corrupted too.

My advice: Visual SourceSafe or an equivalent. And at least one single harddisk backup of course.
