>Is anyone using online backup? Is it safe to use for backing up VFP databases with open files, I have looked at a few services and it appears they are doing automatic backups throughout the day.

I have always did it when I was using VFP. I didn't have any problem. However, it was not a file copy as this won't work with an open table. I use the VFP built in COPY table functionality or something like that if I recall correctly. So, basically, it was a full backup of the table, but online.
