Hi:
at the command line do a q copy type=3Darchive or q copy type=3Darchive =
f=3Dd
to see your site definitions on archived files. Each archive is a unique
instance of what is archived and  the number of days it is retained is
determined by the retain version values. Once you archive the file, you =
can
delete or modify the original file and the archived file still 'lives' for
its retain version value.

with
