As with any software package, you should make backup copies for everyday use and store your original master diskettes in a safe location. The easiest way to make a backup copy is to use the DOS DISKCOPY utility.

In a single-drive system, the command is:

diskcopy a: a:K

You will need to swap disks as requested by the system.

In a two-disk system, the command is:

diskcopy a: b:K

This will copy the contents of the master disk in drive A to the backup disk in drive B.
