Backup for AyaNovaLite

1. Exit out of AyaNova

2. Backup the database file AYANOVALITE.FDB to your backup device (i.e. CD, REV, backup tape, etc)

The database file is located in the folder %AllUsersProfile%\AyaNovaData\

•	On a Vista computer, %AllUsersProfile% is usually C:\ProgramData\

•	On 2000 or XP or 2003 computer, %AllUsersProfile% is usually C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data

3. Confirm the database file is now on your backup device

4. You are done.

The AyaNovaLite database file AYANOVALITE.FDB holds all of your data, as well as your license. And the AYANOVALITE.FDB database file is the only file that needs to be backed up when using AyaNovaLite.

NOTE: Do not access the database when the backup is being performed (i.e. do not run the AyaNova program, or access the database directly when the backup is being performed)

NOTE: If your situation is such that the AyaNova database must be accessed and running on a continuous basis, you will want to move to the full AyaNova and configure for network access so that you can use the network backup steps with a network configured AyaNova database.

If you do not have a backup device, contact your local computer center to discuss what would be needed to backup your important data on a regular basis.
