O.P. Custom Name Back Up (Made a progy)
Well until Patchou decides to update Plus! and add a feature to back up the custom names, so I decided to make a Program that does.

so basically download the file, unzip it and run the exe called CustomNameBackUp.exe

what will the program do...
it will Create a Back Up Directory called cnBackUp (C:\cnBackUp\CustomNameBackUp$)
the $ = the Amount of times you have ran the file and will backup it to a new folder
ie...
You ran the program 3 times you will see...
[Image: 1.gif]

in one of those folders you will see the following...
[Image: 2.gif]

The file Date Created is the Time and Date the files were created
the CustomNameBackUp$.reg is the registry file containing all custom names for the people that use msn on the current account.

Gives me 'Run-time error 13. Type mismatch'  :(

If I remember correctly this might have something to do with our Swedish convention of writing 3,5 when other use 3.5! On the other hand we write 4.500 when you write 4,500.
