Hello zafar,
You can very well achieve this by simply making a copy of the file to another
location

- You can do anything with a little bit of 'magination.

- I've been programming so long, my brain is now soft-ware.

I agree with the other user

There is a piece of code on http://www.planet-source-code.com which does the
same thing

So, use a timer & add a file copy routine within the timer_tick event to
make sure its backed up

Here's the code I mentioned, but I haven't downloaded it:

I hope this helps,
