[G4] Trying to backup

[Michael L. Brown]

Wilton, open Retrospect ExpressX as you did before. At the main 
window select the "Backup" button. Then select the Destinaion Button. 
You will then see a window asking which Backup Set you want to use. 
Select "New". That will bring you to a window titled "Backup Set 
Creation". Set the file type selection from "Removable Disk" to 
"File". The next window will ask you where you want to save that 
file. Select your external hard drive, and that should do it.

I found that if you backed out of the program at that stage, it will 
still be set to "File" the next time.

Good Luck.

Mike
