22e5d15e-86e5-42cb-ba9b-618ae2f35f8f Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 The backup sets in Retrospect 7.7's Backup Sets window aren't listed in alphabetical order. Upgrading to version 7.7.562 didn't fix the problem as I hoped it would. Is there any way to correct that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only (less than ideal) workaround for this I have found is to forget all the backup sets and then reopen the catalog files (which on my system are not deleted when you forget the backup set) in the order I want them to appear.

When you create new backup sets after reopening the catalog files, do the new sets appear in alphabetical order or after the existing ones?

Scillonian Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 (edited) When you create new backup sets after reopening the catalog files, do the new sets appear in alphabetical order or after the existing ones? Unfortunately any new backup sets created are added after the existing ones. Edited May 26, 2011 by Scillonian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c796302a-4e45-4ffd-920f-b5d35420c2ac Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 I work around this by creating a folder and moving the backup sets in and out of the folder in alphabetical order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastercam Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 I work around this by creating a folder and moving the backup sets in and out of the folder in alphabetical order. Sometimes it's the little things that make a day bright! Thanks for this...it will help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antti Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 I think there should be a way to sort them in the GUI by date, name and so on. At the very least they should be sorted by default. We have something like 200 sets - I will not reopen or move them all in alphabetical order, right now it's hard to find anything, since we transferred the server a while back, and the sets are really mixed up in the listing.
