Hi Peter,  
Thanks for the offer. I have a backup system that works for me, so I was  
never in any trouble -- I was just curious as to what was going on.  
 
Since 1995 I have been using a program called WPSBKUP by Dave Lester. I  
don't think it is marketed anymore, but it works fine with OS/2 Warp 4. I  
don't know if it will work with eCS, but I would doubt it.
