subject: POSSIBLE PROBLEM ...

-> Delphi (and TP 6.0) does the following on saving a file:
-> - Delete the .BAK file; (or whatever extension is used for
-> backups...) - Rename the .PAS file to .BAK
-> - Save current file as .PAS
->
-> That about explains it.
-> So if you want your .Bak file back, don't save the curren file with
-> the same name, or first rename the backup (yes, multitasking has it's
-> advantages...)
-> To prevent this, the IDE would have to make backups of backups etc...
I'm just guessing here, but you didn't read my original post, did you?
Try going back and re-reading it and you will see that your above
information has nothing to do with a possible saving problem in Delphi
that I described earlier.
Sheesh!
