When I tried to backup c:\* with BAII, it aborted with this log:

11-APR-03 00:07:24 [id=8000] Backup for set 'BABKUP1' started. 11-APR-03

BABKUP1 set looks like this:

I have the impression from rtfm and the help that the problem is an empty
API file.

I emailed this info to tech support but have not heard anything from them.
Since they usually reply promptly, I guess they are overloaded or stumped.

If anybody has suggestions that will let me back up with BAII, I would
appreciate them.
