Can somebody help me figure out what settings to use to accomplish the following?

I'd like to set an automatic mirroring back up of project folders which contain differently named sub-folders, but each sub-folder can contain a similarly named document to those in other folders. E.g.,

Projects
__Project_01
____Proposal
____Agreement
____Implementation_Details
__Project_02
____Proposal
____Agreement
____Implementation_Details
__Project_03
____Proposal
____Agreement
____Implementation_Details


While the documents named "Proposal" all have similar boiler-plate text, the client name and proposal details are different in each of the three same-named documents.

With the configuration I tried, ViceVersa didn't create subfolder names "Project_02", "Project_03", etc and failed to copy over the second and third instances of "Proposal", "Agreement" and "Implementation_Details".

Is there any way to do what I'm trying to do using ViceVersa?

Thanks,
Nolan

Hello, are you mirroring the Projects folder from source to target? Or what is your current setup? thanks

Yes, I am using the "Backup (Mirror Source to Target)" method. What other settings do you need to know?

Thanks. I got ViceVersa to do what I want it to do - including backing up my source directory without even having opened up ViceVersa.

With the mirroring capability of ViceVersa I don't know why most small business users would spend the money on a RAID drive when they could buy an inexpensive external hard drive, set profiles to run every so often during the day and get the same benefit.

I'm off to convert my trial license to a paid license.

OK, thanks. We use both Smile RAID for our internal disks and ViceVersa for replication to external disks.
