Open your ftm. On the top of the left hand side click on the tab that says File.

Go down and click on "Back up"

A box will come up with options where to back up to. The third one down is CD. Tick that and then clcik Back up. (of course put your cd in then :))

If you have FTM2006 you can also choose internet back up, I do both as a belt and braces cover. Its only about a fiver a year and has saved my bacon on two occasions now.

Oh, just seen davids post above. May be 2008 does it differently?

Can someone possibly tell me 'in simple terms' how to save FTM to CD - I would be very grateful
