For those using the excellent Directory Opus for file management, here is a button definition to easily backup your SAV files from your card.  Its not much, but what the heck ... might as well give back when I can ...

What Does It Do:
Backs up SAV files from a designated path to another designated path with auto-naming folders using date/time for a unique copy.

How Do I Use It:
Copy the XML file to your clipboard, open Directory Opus, go into Configuration Mode, right click a toolbar, and select PASTE BUTTON.

Be sure to change the paths in the XML to match your card reader and hard drive location to save to (should be obvious - if you can use a SuperCard, this shouldn't stump you).

I'll check the thread if you have questions ...
