Special Tab
The backup file is created in the destination folder and you receive the following
confirmation, which includes the altered file name for the backup file.
The date and time at which the backup file was created have been inserted into the file
name in order to allow the system operator to determine at a later date which versions of
the system database are available for restoring the system from.
The file name is formatted:
ZbaseW_be_yyyy_mm_dd_hhmmss.accdb
An example would be: ZbaseW_be_2008_12_16_151955.accdb
Restore Database
The Restore Database function allows a user to replace the current ZbaseW database with
an earlier version saved by using the Backup Database function. As a precaution, the
database being replaced is automatically copied into a backup file prior to the restore
taking place so that you can recover from the restore operation if necessary.
When you click on the Restore Database button, the first thing ZbaseW does is to open the
following window to caution the user that this operation should be left to senior personnel
to perform and to remind those running multiple user systems that they need to shut down
all the other ZbaseW instances before going ahead with the restore operation.
When you click on the Yes button, a standard browser window opens to allow you to
select the backup file from which you want to restore the database. Once you select a file
and click the Open button, the following window opens asking you to confirm that the file
selected is the correct one to use.
