You should make a backup copy of the databases on a daily and weekly basis, depending on how often you use QuicDoc. If you lose data for any reason, it can be restored from your backup copy.

From the Windows Start menu, select All Programs...QuicDoc 9, and then select QuicDoc DB Manager.

QDBackup Click on Backup Database on the side menu bar of the DTI Database Manager window.

Click the down arrow in the Server Name field to populate the field or to select the proper Server for the database you wish to backup.

Backup Information

Click the down arrow in the Database Name field to populate the field or to select the proper file. This will populate the File Name field with a backup file name which you may change if needed.

 

Click the Start Backup button to create a backup.

The backup command does not simply copy the data from your database. Instead, it compresses the data into a compact file that is smaller than your database.
