It's risky to back up a database while the database itself is open. It's a lot
simpler to just back up the .mdb or .accdb file directly in Windows Explorer,
or using any of the many good backup programs that are available.
The problem is I have a Security on the database "KeyedAccess" so will have
to find out if I can split my database and still have a security code for
that machine!
