Not with excel.

And as an aside, MSWord has an option to allow fast saves.
(Inside MSWord: Tools|Options|Save tab|Allow fast saves)

I've read a few posts (a few years ago) that say that this setting is a leading
cause of document corruption in MSWord.

You may want to ask in a dedicated MSWord newsgroup if this still a problem
(share your version of MSWord, too). Well if you use this option.

It is often helpful when developing a project to make frequent saves.
If it's a big project with a lot of code, this takes time.
Is there any way (even programatically) to speed this up by, just saveing
changes?
