| Two different kinds of backup files from manual and backup on exit Every time I exit Money I get backup files with names like qdata05 Backup d2_2008-01-09_121457 On the other hand if I use the back up function while Money is operating, the progress bar informs that the file is being compressed,then backed up I get files with names like my2005 backup D1 which are about 1/5 of the size my2005.MNY is the name of the actual money i file i open each time 2 questions... If I should ever need to restore a backup, would the compressed and uncompressed files (if created without any change made in between to the .mny file) produce the same results? Where does the qdata05 portion of automatic backup on exit file name come from and is there a way to change it. TIA Jim |
