Yea, Craig...as has been discussed before in this forum.
Search this forum for .tar.gz. Widgetz posted codes in this forum that first creates a tar compressed file of all data files, and then deletes them, but keeps the most recent seven backup tar files.
You can also use Cron to delete files, too. Use the rm command in the shell file to delete backup files. You can set the Cron to activate on a weekly basis, which will keep six backup files in your backup directories. But then will delete them on the seventh day...To find out more about Cron, go to the FAQ in the Resource Center that Bobsie wrote.
