Hagar the Horrible

I created a backup set and selected my CD-RW drive to copy it onto a newly
formatted CD-RW. Was informed that I tried to access an invalid drive or do
not have access rights to the drive.

As usual, there is no help regarding backing up to CDRWs in the Help Menus;
it does mentions backup tapes, but offers no details.

Guess MS hasn't figured out yet that CDRWs are the easiest way to make
backups. Or, am I getting suckered into purchasing the "De Luxe" version of
the Backup Program which has that option is magically enabled ??

Any suggestions on how to fix the CDRW access problem, or any suggestion to
an alternative to the this non-functional backup kluge.

You can't use NTBackup to back up to a CD-RW, and there's no "upgrade" to a
version of it that will. Back up to your hard drive and then burn the CD.
