Re: [Summary-Talk] Deleting data/ files



You can delete any of the files whose names start with "back" that are in 
Summary's Data folder at any time. They are backups of the report 
database from various recent processing runs that are used by the 
automatic backup system.

If you delete these files, Summary will recreate them over the next few 
weeks.

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
