Hi Thomas,

So if I'm understanding you, you are saying that selecting the files I
want and invoking Export Backup will export the files and versions that
are *in the repository*, and will NOT export local modified versions of
files?

I just tried that.  The Export Backup command exported the local
modified version instead of the repository contents.

Apparently I've not communicated what I need.  Could you please echo
back to me your understanding of what I'm trying to accomplish, so I can
address any specific points?

Thank you,
Scott
