Database Compression Tool for Backup

Your database should be copied to the Flash Memory, diskette or CD after every time data is added or updated.

With the economical availability of Flash Memory devices that attach to the computer's USB port, Copy and Paste the Kennel.db from the Board4i folder is quick and easy.

Vista & XP customers now have a version of Disk Compression included.

If you prefer to copy your database to Diskette, you must consider that the capacity of the Diskette is 1.44MB

Your database should be copied to the diskette or CD.  If your database is larger than 1.44 MB,  The solution as the database reaches this size is to either go to media with larger size limits such as CD-ROM or Zip Drives or the use a Compression Utility called Winzip(r).
