I have been using a Colorado Jumbo 250MB drive _fairly_ happily for
several years with Central Point Backup V7 (the manual says V7, the
About box says V1.2 :-? ) under WFWG3.11.

My problem is the 120MB tapes are too small for my newer disk drive.

I have seen larger tapes which fit in the same drive but will take
800MB. The problem is that my software cannot be configured for tapes
larger than 120MB.

My question: What software should I get to be able to use the larger
tapes?  The scheduler part of Central Point Backup is vital to the way
I work, so any replacement software would also have to have
automaticaly scheduled, unattended backup.

I don't subscribe to this group, so please copy replies to me via
mail.

Thanks
