When I go to save a previously saved Excel spreadsheet, I get the message
that the file "may have been changed by another user since I last saved it.
In that case, what do you want to do?" I am given the option of saving a
copy or overwriting changes.

I get this message every time. How can I disable this without going in and
saving every spreadsheet I work on as a shared workbook?

You might search the MS Knowledgebase for the text of the message. Here's
one hit I got:
