Files to Backup - this dialog box will let you choose what files to backup and put them all in one entry.

Select a Directory - click on a directory from the Folders box.  The files in the selected directory will be displayed in the Files box. 

Specify Groups of Files - if there is a file type (for example, all text files, *.txt) that you want to include or exclude from this entry, that can be done with the buttons under the word, Select.  When a button is pressed, all the files of that type are selected in the current directory (and its subdirectories if include subdirectories is checked).  Clicking a pressed button will exclude that type of files from the current directory (and its subdirectories if include subdirectories is checked).  The status of the button indicates which file types are included and excluded in the current directory.

Use the Include Subdirectories checkbox to include or not include subdirectories of the current directory.  After changing this checkbox, the Select selections must be reselected in order for Include Subdirectories to take effect.

To specify more file types or groups of files using wildcards, press the More button.  This will display the Select File Groups screen.  Select the File Type from the dropdown box or type it in the dropdown box.  An asterisk (*) may be used to signify any number of any character.  A question mark (?) is used to signify one character.  Check the Include Subdirectories checkbox to include subdirectories (| before the entry indicates no subdirectories and a > before the entry indicates include subdirectories).  Press Include to include them or press Exclude to exclude them.  The file type will be added to the appropriate list.  If you decide not to use one of the entries in the list, just delete it by selecting it and pressing the delete button under the list.  When you add and remove items from these lists, the corresponding files are checked or unchecked from the list in the next tab.

Select Individual Files - if there are individual files that you would like to mark for backup, find them in the Files box and check them.

Name of this Zip Package - enter a word here that is no longer than 8 letters long.  This will be the name of the zip file that the backed up files will be put into.  So if you enter, "programs", when you perform a backup, all of the files specified here will be put in a zip file called "programs.zip".

Clicking on OK produces the entry and closes the dialog box.  Clicking on Cancel closes the dialog box without making an entry.

Notes - the Notes button is optional.  It allows you a place to put comments or further descriptions about the backup file.  Click on the Notes button and a textbox will be shown in which you can type your notes and descriptions.  Click on the OK button to save this information or click on Cancel not to save it.

If there is content in the Notes textbox, when that Backup is done, a txt file will be in the Backup directory with the comments in it.

Find Size of Backup - click this button and another screen will be displayed.  It will immediately start figuring out the size and number of total files in the Backup.  This may take some time to accomplish depending on the size of the Backup.  All files checked and included in the Backup are counted.  When it is finished, you can return to the main Files to Backup screen by clicking on OK.
