Add Files Tutorial
This tutorial describes how to use the Add Files dialog to help you maintain an archive that contains back-up copies of recently modified MS Word files.
1. Click the "New Archive" button to create a new archive in ArchiveView.
2. Click the "Add Files" button to open the Add Files dialog.
3. Click the "Add Filter" button to open the Add by Criteria dialog.
4. Use the Browse button next to the "Folders" field to select the folder in which you keep your document (for example, My Documents).
5. In the File Mask field type "*.doc" so that any files that contain the .doc suffix will be matched and added to the archive. Typing *.doc will add any Word Documents created by Microsoft Word.
6. Click the "Date" tab.
7. Click the "Only Files Modified In" radio button.
8. Click the "In the Last...Days" radio button.
9. Click the up arrow to select 7 days.
10. Click OK.
11. Click "Save List" in the Add Files Dialog.
12. Save the list file.
13. Click OK.
The StuffIt application will now search your hard drive for files that match the criteria, and add any matching files to the new archive you created. When you close the archive you will be prompted to save it, and the archive will be re-compressed.
You can maintain this archive using the following method:
1. Open the archive created in example 1.
2. Click the Add Files button.
3. Click the Load List button, and browse for the list file created in example 1.
4. Click OK.
This will cause any file that has been updated in the last 7 days to be added to your backup archive. Older copies of modified files that exist in your archive will be replaced by the most recent version.
