Or is that help for stupid people, or person... me... Okay, I reformated my harddrive after it crashed, after saving as much of it as possible with disksalv. Now, I had most of the main partition backed up as a set of sixteen disks. They were backed up with Superback. My only copy of Superback also happens to be backed up on those disks... yes, it is backed up with Superback. Which means I need superback to get back my copy of superback! Does anyone know a way to read Superback backups without the Superback program? Needless to say, this is one of the many disks (the original) which was lost when I moved down here... I just need to read one little file of it to make everything fine! And yes, I realize how stupid this is. :-) But, then again, this is a stupid area... where else would I have to log through a government 1-800 number in massachusettes to get onto a boston university computer to telnet down to my mainframe at penn state, just because their connections arenot working right? Longest round trip I know... 800 miles of teleconnecting, when the computer is only 2 miles from home... but I digress. Thanks! sandy
