Okay, so I'm a dork! After reading all these posts I did a little poking around and "discovered" that my Sprite Backup is found on my PPC AND my PC! Duhhh!
Sooo...I went in and successfully figured out how to do a backup on my PC!

Two questions though...
1) While I have made my backups on my PCC follow a schedule, I didn't see a way to this for the PC. Is there such an option?
Update: Okay, so I found a box under "options" that lets it backup once a week when connected to ActiveSync... That should be fine, but is there no other way to actually "schedule" it?

2) My PC saved the backup file as a .pbf extention....just to see what happened, I tried to open it, and as I expected, it said that Windows doesn't recognize this type of file and gave me a dropdown list of programs to open it with (none of which would work, of course) So, in the event I ever need to restore from the desktop, how the heck would I go about it?
