It is important to back up the data entered in the Editor. To find the location of the folder containing the data, click on the 'View' menu, select 'Options' and click on the 'Database' tab.

The folder specified under 'Shared database location' is the folder which contains all property, owner, and applicant information, pictures, event history, appointments entered in the planner and edited templates. This folder should be backed up regularly as a precaution against file corruption, computer failure etc.
By default, the Editor will try to automatically back up every 7 days. The frequency of back ups can be altered, or turned off altogether by amending the options on this page. The folder specified under 'Database backup options' is where the Editor will create the data backups, and may be changed by clicking on 'Select folder' and picking the appropriate location. The Editor can also be made to create a backup at anytime by clicking on the 'File' menu and selecting 'Backup database...'
