Hi Kostas
Go to Microsoft and download the Synctoy which is brilliant - one of the
very few very good MS applications!
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/digitalphotography/prophoto/synctoy.mspx
Completely free. There are several options and I use the "contribute"
one. This does NOT delete anything so you can do an incremental backup.
You can also use one which always maintains the backup folder as an
exact imitation of the working folder.
You can synchronise across folders, folders to external drives or
network drives - I use it at school to backup students networked work to
an external hard drive.

Greetings all (and especially Karl who is the list "expert" on this)
I would appreciate you suggestion for an app to synchronize an
external with my main drive where I keep my backups.
I have tried the Windows “My Briefcase” feature and I find it
difficult to operate. (I do not like the drag and drop method)
My main criteria are:
-Absolutely foolproof operation. The kind of: “Synchronize the files
in Drive F according to files in drive C”
- Ability to perform synchronization in individual directress
- Freeware if possible
Thanks for your suggestions, Kostas
