Always Create Backup - option is not working
I checked the always create backup option for 2 files. I saved them both,
but neither has the .xlk file created. Any ideas? |

Always Create Backup - option is not working
A backup is created only after saving the workbooks a second time.
Backup is always one version behind the current save so first save does create a backup. Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Thu, 22 May 2008 09:15:01 -0700, dhstein wrote: I checked the always create backup option for 2 files. I saved them both, but neither has the .xlk file created. Any ideas? |

Always Create Backup - option is not working
Thanks Gord. Actually it turns out I'm getting a "Backup of
{myfilename}.xlk" This is some known issue when files are saved to an ftp location. My file is being saved locally, so I still don't get it, but as long as I'm getting a backup, it's OK.

That's how Excel does it.
Name is always prefaced with "backup of" Gord On Thu, 22 May 2008 10:02:40 -0700, dhstein wrote: Thanks Gord.
