In one of my apps, when you exit, it offers to backup your data

I use Azip and you can name your file and destination

It so happens my client told it to backup to C:\KCB.ZIP

System is on Win7

When he tried to restore, the file was not there

I tried this on MY Win7 system

My routine told me it had made a backup and that it could see the file

i.e. (mbaks=C:\KCB.ZIP)

mybackup=azip(.T.,"&mbaks","*.dbf *.fpt *.cdx *.fr? -foxuser.*")

If !File("&mbaks")

=Messagebox('OOPS something did not work and your backup is NOT

successful ',0,'WARNING')

else

=messagebox('Backup file created',0,'')

endif

I tried this in the command box

?File("&mbaks")

Answer is .T.

I type DIR C:\*.ZIP

and it tells me the files found are: c:\kcb.zip

I check it with explorer and CMD, both tell me the file is NOT there

What am i missing ?
