Hi everyone - I'm the proud new owner of DB Pro package. I'm having a problem with what must be the simplest thing to do.

When writing a program I like to back up versions periodically in case I make a complete mess. I use 'save project as' and give it another name. Then I carry on coding the original source. When I go back I find both versions are identical with the new updates added. I've tried creating a new project folder and it's still happening. What's the logic here? Am I missing something very obvious?

In addition to 'save project as' use 'save source as' too. That should be what you're looking for.

Or just "save all" and it'll save both the project data (.dbpro) and the actual code (.dba).
