you can do this from posconfig

go to stock table

F5 I think is something like manipulate/export lines

After that, you should see an option to backup
Which will save it in a new sub directory

F5 > 1. Continue

I Think You Press F5 and then 1. Continue or something like that.

angelo, read carefully, it goes into a folder called BACKUP inside the folder where you have POS installed.

Copy that to your disk.

Copy the stock table to a floppy

To copy the stock table to a floppy, from the main menu go to "3. File maintenance" and select "7. Copy files." Now select to copy the stock table and the floppy drive letter you want to send it to.
