All the information that you enter into WorkExpo is stored in a single data file.
It's default name is Data.mdb and it normally resides in the C: \Program Files\WorkExpo folder. This file contains all your important information and should be carefully backed-up regularly.
WorkExpo can create multiple backups of the data file. This means that if you save a bad data file, you still have other good backups from which to retrieve data from in case of an emergency. WorkExpo will append the day of the week to each file name so you have will have up to seven backups at any one time. This setting is optional.
To turn on multiple backups:
- From the Main Menu click the Options button
- Click the Backup tab
- In the backup options place a tick in the box for Automatic Multiple Backups.
Each backup will have the day of the week appended to the file name creating up to seven backup copies of the data file.

It's a good idea to have two or more copies of your data file in case one is lost or unusable. WorkExpo has an option to do this for you automatically. See Automatic Backups. |
