Have Quicken 08. All of a sudden when I try to backup to one of my flash drives I get a message to select a valid directory. My path is H:\sjb1/7/08. As usual it asks if I want to create that directory, yes, then I get the message about a valid directory. Can someone tell what I am doing wrong?

Guess #1......your flash drive is full or going bad. (Have you LOOKED at a directory and free space count lately and/or tried to pull something off of it?)
Guess #2......use a different "path" and/or filename (IIRC, slashes in path cause trouble)......to repeat: Have you looked at a directory of the flash drive lately?
And don't ask me why it (seemed) to work in the past. I don't have a guess for that !! ;-)
Neither / or \ are valid characters for file or directory names.
I your path is as you show you need to change the /'s to 's for it to be valid path to directory 08.
