The default name of the archived (bak) file will be a combination of the database name and
the time/date of the archive. For example, if the database name is Example.mdb then the
archived file name will be Example_YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.bak. The date/time format is
YYYYMMDDHHMMSS and indicates the year/month/day/hour/minute/second when the file
was archived.
When the archive is finished, a message similar to the following will be displayed:
Figure 17. Archive complete.
NOTICE
Ensure that you make note of the location of the archived file (.bak).
Click on the OK button to finish the archive process.
Restoring a database
NOTE
In the past, archives were created for storage devices with lower capacity, so
compression was used to minimize the space needed for storage. File formats such
as .cab and .zip were common.
Support has been maintained for .zip and .cab files if an older archive using these
formats needs to be restored. For such restorations, WinZIP will need to be
installed on the system.
To view archived data with the software, the database must be restored first.
1) Click on
Database then Restore .
