	Summary: Couldn't get CPBACKUP to work on my system.  The
	windows version worked, but other didn't.

Following up to my article because the problem is now solved.  My
combination of MS-DOS 5.0, DOS=HIGH (or HIGH=DOS, I never remember),
HIMEM.SYS, SMARTDRV.SYS, CP antivirus, CP Mirror, etc from PCTools V7
caused CPBACKUP from V7 to crash.  The solution turns out to be use
PC-CACHE rather than SMARTDRV.SYS.  Your mileage may vary because this
is on a bailing wire and bubble gum clone.
