I figured it out. The sets refer to the league extensions such as default.lg. I originallly tried to restore only the last backup file, but then I realized that the sets in my case would be MLB.lg and Default. lg. So I chose MLB.lg with my restore file name at the bottom called jimrestore and the backup then went through all the backups so it would include the entire database info. Then I went into the game and loaded the saved game entitled jimrestore.lg and all my present season is now in the game.

I'm sure most already understand this precedure, but if there are other first timers like me trying to restore backup files maybe this explanation will help.

By the way the help menu in the online manual was helpful, but I had to read it several times before it dawned on me that "sets" were actually league extensions.
