Hello Benjamin,



Happy New Year,

And thanks for your answer... It was really strange for me to find workable
solution so thanks with explanation!

Right now I have no problems with WinFS, also I made it as the default place
for my Documents Folder,
so it's cool to use my data in my applications. The only problem is that I
can't get an access to this data while running Windows Vista... And I wonder
what I have to do with this data if WinFS crashes?

What about Backup/Restore mechanism? Some articles explaing it would be
great!

Thanks,

Daniel A. Kornev,
Microsoft Student Partner.
