Backing Up a File

The Backup File command enables you to create a backup copy of a project and any files associated with that project.

The following are other supported files:

  • Calendars
  • Codes
  • Resources
  • System Library
  • Views

If the project includes references to external subprojects that are open, these subprojects are included with the master project as well.

By default, all the information about a project and its ancillary data files are stored by Open Plan in a single file with the extension .bk3. You can also use the Backup Data command to back up calendar, code, project, resource, system library, and view files outside of the context of a project.

Note: To back up a project, you must have write access to it.

On the File menu, click Manage Files > Backup Data to display the Backup dialog box which contains a hierarchical list of all the files in the data source. You can use this dialog box to select the file(s) to back up.
