File Backup Options - #3406
             
             There are two methods for creating backup files in
             CorelDRAW 7.0. Both options, Make Backup on Save and
             Auto-Backup may be accessed in the Tools / Options /
             Advanced tab from the ribbon bar menu. These options may
             be invoked individually or concurrently.

             Make Backup On Save

             A backup file (BACKUP_OF_XXX.CDR) is created if a document is saved
             more than once during a CorelDRAW work session. A file of
             the same name as the document is created and placed in
             the selected directory. All backup files are given the
             filename BACKUP_OF_XXX.CDR and remain on the hard drive until
             manually deleted.

             To enable the Backup on Save feature:

             1.) Mouse-click Tools, Options.

             2.) Mouse-click the Advanced tab.

             3.) Activate the Make backup on Save check box.

          

             Auto-Backup

             This option backs up the file at scheduled intervals
             which are preset by the CorelDRAW user. The automatic
             timer is activated the instant document contents change,
             and a file with the filename AUTOBACKUP_OF_XXX.CDR is created after the
             selected time has expired. Auto-Backup files are removed
             from the hard drive when the user exits CorelDRAW or
             clicks File / New / Save, or Save As.

             This file remains on your hard drive if the application
             aborts illegally. 

             To enable the Auto-Backup feature:

             1.) Mouse-click Tools, Options.

             2.) Mouse-click the Advanced tab.

             3.) Enable the Auto-Backup check box.

             4.) Enter an interval time in the number box (from 1 to
             120 minutes).

             5.) Choose to save backup in the same folder as the
             original CDR file or select a directory to always backup
             to.

             Note: It is possible to disable both file backup
             features, but it is not recommended. Avoid the
             irretrievable loss of valuable work by utilizing at least
             one of these backup features during each CorelDraw work
             session.
