Hello all,

     I've a question regarding George Woodside's excellent hard drive
backup utility.  Regarding the archive bit....
     I have TOS 1.4 and was hoping that the setting of the bit would
allow me to use the archive option to back up only the files that have been
added to or modified since my last backup.
     This is not the case, though.  When attempting a new backup, none of
my new, added, or modified files were flagged and put in the backup
window.  In fact, nothing showed up in the window at all except for a
message saying that the backup had been successful.  Yeah, right...
     Ok, dullard that I am, am I misinterpretating what is suppose
to be really happening?  Could someone tell me the "rest of the story"?
