You need your exclude above the includes - though having said that, I 
can't see why you are backing anything up at all.....

What does a "q inclexcl" in a client dsmc session look like?

Hi All

I am trying to create a dsm.opt file to only backup all Office files as
Tech Support are rolling out new desktops and I want to make sure they
dont miss any critical data.

I have the following so far but it backups the entire C:

INCLEXCL "RETRYPERIOD 0" 
INCLEXCL "CHANGINGRETRIES 0" 
INCLEXCL "INCLUDE 'NT' NT_TAPE_DAILY" 
INCLEXCL "DIRMC NT_DIRECTORIES" 
INCLEXCL "include '*:\...\*.xls'" 
INCLEXCL "include '*:\...\*.doc'" 
INCLEXCL "include '*:\...\*.ppt'" 
INCLEXCL "include '*:\...\*.pst'" 
INCLEXCL "exclude '*:\...\*.*'" 

Is there not a simpler method of just stating all .xls, .doc, .ppt etc

Thanks
