    Spanning a file across floppies...

    Hi,
    I have a database which I need to be able to backup across multiple floppy disks. This is likely to be MDB format and may be up to 2-3 floppy disks for a complete backup.
    I know there is PKZIP with the ampersand parameter but I'd like something automated in code without the use of PKZIP.
    Any help appreciated.

    Thanks, Steve.

    I beleive Lou (notLHK) wrote something to do this. You might want to contact him. An alternative would be to use the command-line version of WinZip. Its free btw. You can just Shell it. Of course, you could Shell Pkzip also you know.
    You just proved that sig advertisements work.
