Backup of Schedule File Smaller Than Original (139641)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows 7.0
This article was previously published under Q139641

SUMMARY

When you create a backup of a schedule file by choosing the Backup option from the File menu, the backup file is smaller in size than the original schedule file. The size can sometimes be nearly half or even one third the original size.

MORE INFORMATION

The smaller size of the backup SCD file can be attributed to the following:
  1. The backup process in Schedule+ 7.0 does not copy the Synchronization Table from the original SCD file.
  2. The backup process removes extra blank spaces and performs defragmentation of data in the original SCD file before copying to the backup SCD file.
Performing a backup and restore of the schedule file is a suggested method of optimizing your Schedule+ 7.0 SCD files.
