Backup solution created using Access dB

Pat
I am not real proficient in Access so...

Could someone create a simple - no frills database that can be used as a
simple and easy backup solution. Something just like Cal2000 (
http://www.peterssoftware.com/cal.htm ) which could be modified BUT...

1- Would allow folder selections to be backed up as well as single file
selection.
2- It would also give a choice (by checkmark) to overwrite files in the
destination folder. If not checked it will auto name the files in the
destination folder with the 'Copy of'..prefix.
3- Can do a differential copy for the select folder and or filenames.
4- The final product MUST BE a mdb file and CAN NOT be a complied exe of any
sort.

Again, nothing fancy, just a plain vanilla product will do. Please let me
know if any of you can do this and what it will cost.

Ok - before you ask why I just don't use a backup software program - don't
ask... too stupid of a reason to even explain it and I'd be wasting your
time.

Best Regards,

Pat
