The backup files are stored in the same folder as the original.

If the original file is named book1.xls, then the backup will be named:
backup of book1.xlk

The location is determined by excel--not the user.

And excel is different from word. You save the complete file. There are no
"fast" saves.

I understand that you can go to File Save As General & check the Always
create backup box to create backups.

Where are these files stored? Can you change the location or naming
convention so you can ensure previous backup files are not overwritten?

Is this a full backup? Or only the changes?

Thanks,
