Backing up Goldmine 6.5 data non SQL

Hi all, I have a client that has a system that uses Goldmine standard (v 6.5). I know they store their database locally and wanted to setup a backup script to backup the data. I can't find in the program (tools, preferances or open database) where the database location is.

Question, where is this located. This is the standard non SQL version.

Thanks, this last part is not required, but if you know, they also use a plug in "Quote Works" Same question on that, if not, I can call them.

Thanks all.

GMGenius... I think/thought a copy/paste would work, even with open files. So, maybe something like SyncToy would do the job? Or a scheduled xcopy command? or Robocopy?

Or at least a backup tool with an open file management system built in.

Cool, thanks guys, that worked, last little question, is the Quoteworks data stored in that Quoteworks folder?

Also, I use a program called GSCopy that uses Windows built in VSS support to copy open files.

Thanks to you both.

again, Help | About GoldMine | System shows the file locations and install directory, all programs should have this in their help screens.

I love this site.
