One point of clarification. I was responding to Mark's request which 
seemed to go unanswered. I myself do not delete anything at the 
source in a backup operation and use xxcopy to copy to CD-RW 
(including spanned sets), HD, and CD-R. I use Ghost image files for 
full backups. I adhere to the packrat approach and am scared to 
death to loose one single file.
