The DBISAM manual shows that TDBISAMDatabase.Backup returns a Boolean value, but it doesn't say what it means.  Can someone at Elevate Software say definitively?  I know what the obvious assumption is, but I prefer not to make assumptions when calling someone else's code, especially when I'm asking someone to buy my product.

Tim is the only official source.

However true means backups was successful and false that backup failed.

The example in manual does describe the return value :

Thank you, Raul.  The example is pretty strong evidence.
