Default Autosaving Workbook

Hi,

Thank you for posting in MSDN managed newsgroup!

From my understanding to this issue, you want to know whether the autosave add-in will be treated as global add-in so that each user can use it.

For Excel 2003, you can directly add the add-in in Excel with one administrator account. Then this add-in will be global and every user can use it
directly. However, after you add the autosave add-in, the add-in will be disabled by default when another user starts excel for the first time. he will
need to enable this add-in.

For Excel 2002, I'd suggest you can copy the autosave.xla file into the directory: %programfiles%\Microsoft Office\Office10\Library. This is the
default directory for Excel to load the add-in at startup. This way, every excel user will use the Autosave add-in. You will find the add-in in "Tools-
Add-in".

Please feel free to let me know if you have any further questions.

Does this answer your question? Thank you for using Microsoft NewsGroup!
