Protect tag data from download

[jazzplayermark 2]

I'm new to using RSLogix 5000 and I'm not sure how to handle memory protection.  I build recipes from an HMI and store the data in tag arrays on the PLC. I'm used to doing this with the micrologix plc line and in Rslogic 500 I could simply mark the data file to not overwrite when downloading. Is it possible to do something similar with Rslogix 5000? if not, is there a better way to handle recipes? I just don't want to overwrite recipe data by downloading a program update.

I've never used it, but there is a "data preserved download tool" (or something like that). I think you have to select it to install when you install the software, but you may also be able to download/install it separately.
