VA Database 2.0

Backup database files

Changes in the database will be stored immediately to the 4 da-

tabase files *.vad, *.mb, *.db, *.px on the hard disk and can not be

canceled by an undo function. So if you want to return to a former

version of the database, this database must have been copied

before by means of the function Save Database As... under a new

name. This backup copy can then be opened again and stored

under the original name with Save Database As... .

Note: These 4 files on the hard disk should never be renamed

with the Windows Explorer or another file manager tool. For this

purpose the function Save Database As... should be used.
