Never mind, I figured it out on my own by tinkering with it. I will
post a code snippet in case someone searching runs across it may be
able to understand better. Thank you Martin for your advise, it just
was not clear enough for me to understand. What I needed to do was add
a separate entry for every level of the folders.

Note for every folder you want to backup you need a start location,
and an entry for every level of folders after until you reach the
folder you want to back up.
Ex:

FileSet {
  Name = HmcBackup
Include {
    File = "C:/Documents and Settings"

    Options {
  IgnoreCase = yes
  Compression = GZIP1
RegExDir = "^C:/Documents and settings/[^/]+$"

WildDir = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/My Documents"
WildDir = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings"
WildDir = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application Data"
WildDir = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application
Data/Microsoft"
Wild = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/My Documents/*"
Wild = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application Data/Microsoft/*"
    }
Options {
Exclude = yes
WildDir = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/*"
}
}
}
