Here's a general comment on patches that I just found out now and find very
disturbing!!!

I was going to copy last night's backup.1 file to my test server to do a
trial run dump and load until I noticed the date was 4/13/02. That just
happens to be the date I installed the 5.10.121 patch. I checked my
backvan.bat file and apparently the patch overwrote this file. Yep, you got
it. I don't have a backup of my Vantage database for almost a month!!!!!
What possible reason is there to overwrite a basic text batch file during a
patch, especially when it is user configurable and something as important as
this???

Looks like I'm going back to my old tried and true methods - my own batch
files in a location other than \epic51.

ARGHHHH..
