Bob, I think something must be very wrong-- because my dataset is only
175 people. I have no exhibits at this time.

This didn't happen. But since I have been backing up to a file on the hard
drive, I have not had the error 15 message appear again.

When I backed up this morning I had to reenter the hard drive file info,
even though I had used it during the previous backup.

I am now in version 5.03. No desire to go back, please.. TMG4 used to
prompt me "reduce size of administrative files", which I never did because
I didn't know what it might do. Do you think this might be part of the
problem?

Thanks Bob, for your efforts to help me with this.
