Simply Backup program (DOS script) for Bailine BSP

This program copies client data from the Bailine
BSP program to one or more floppy disks

Bailine recommends that you use disks for backup.
Using floppy disks are EASY, cheap and very 
compatible. You avoid a lot of potensial problems 
using other types of media may cause.

You do not need this script If you choose to use 
CD-ROM or other media for backups. As never medias
have a lot more capasity you suggest you then backup
the directory C:\BAILINE in full.

BACKUP.ZIP contains all the files compressed.

You can either download the ZIP and uncompress 
the contents onto å floppy disk, or you can 
download each file individually onto a disk.

Copy all the files in this directory onto a blank disk, 
(Right click each file and select 'save to' etc= 

Label the disk PKZIP.

this once!):

    A:\INSTALL  [Enter]

Remove the PKZIP disk when you are back 
at the C-prompt.

disk into disk drive A: and typing (at the C-prompt):

   \BAILINE\BACKUP  [Enter]
