Many thanks for your informations guys.
There is no built in functionality in robocopy to do this you would need to use a 3rd party product that functions in a simular way but keeps a history such as Backup Assist.
Alternativly... Its not pretty of very efficent... but you could create a robocopy job for each day/week that you want to backup and have a diff destination folder for each.
i.e.
Backup>
>Monday
>Tues
>etc..
>Week 1
> etc.
Then you could schedual the backups for each date. However you would require a large amount of disk space as each one would be a full copy of the data.
