Hello !
I have a baylan Biometrics Finger Print Reader working at my work place for attendance, it imports data to spreadsheet and then let me edit and sort the attendance sheet, i want its automatic backup, is there any way to take its back-up automatically, whether through batch file or anything else.... using schdule task...
I assume you are using Windows of some sort? Linux has a tool called rsync which can periodically make backup copies of new or changed files, even across the network.
Ofcourse, I'm using windows xp and 7 also..
There is a Windows tool built on top of rsync for Windows - DeltaCopy. Here is a link: http://www.aboutmyip.com/AboutMyXApp/DeltaCopy.jsp
It is also open source, so you can modify it to suit if necessary. :-)
If what you are trying to backup is a simple flat file, then yes creating a scheduled task is a pretty easy solution. You could create a batch file, vbs script, etc.. Within a batch file, you could use copy, xcopy, robocopy, etc...
Which part do you need help with?
