I am using gnucash and I am pretty happy with it but I have a question: &nbsp;Which data files do I need to backup in order to be able to recreate my accounting data if I have a catastrophe? &nbsp;Every time I hit the SAVE button, the program generates a lot of data files. &nbsp;For instance, today I have 21 new files. &nbsp;Some end in .log and some end in xac. &nbsp;They have long redundant names like:<br />
<br />
tayloe-gnucash.20070411162<wbr />314.xac.20<wbr />0707191339<wbr />21.xac<br />
<br />
and<br />
<br />
tayloe-gnucash.20070411162<wbr />314.xac.20<wbr />0707191339<wbr />24.log<br />
<br />
Perhaps I should back them all up, but it seems like there should be a certain file that holds all the data.<br />
<br />
Thanks, <br />

Productivity software is application software dedicated to producing information, such as documents, presentations, worksheets, databases, charts, graphs, digital paintings, electronic music and digital video. Most common programs and suites such as Microsoft Office and LibreOffice have their own topics. Office suites, which brought word processing, spreadsheet, and relational database programs to the desktop in the 1980s, are the core example of productivity software, but they can include communications software, personal information managers, groupware and log analysis software.
