Backing up back end databases

A reader’s having some problems backing up back end databases.

Q:  Bob Linthicum writes that he is having a problem with backing up back end databases using the code from Access Archon #151.  He is getting Error 76, “Path not found”.

A:  Try my new Extras Plus add-in (Code Sample #20), which updates the backup code and adds a number of new features, particularly individual object backup.  There were some problems with backing up back ends in the older code, but I fixed them in the add-in.  With the add-in, you don’t have to import anything into your databases, just run the add-in’s menu commands.
