Default Macro to backup?

I am not a programmer, i am into networking, so in case if
someone is going to type here a VB code, keep it in
between inverted commas..:))

In excel i have been using make a backup option for a
while. The backup stays in the same folder as my file,
whats the point? What if HD crashes and all data on disk
is lost? I have a network, can i not use the same backup
option to save the file to another location on network?
What i am doing right now is, i made a batch file that
would run every minute, copy and paste the file to another
location. This used to work fine until, when my batch file
tried to copy paste when file was open , in use and not
yet saved. Excel automatically made new copies in the same
folder naming them CDBF47ED and so on...and messed up. I
am not sure if that happened coz of my batch trying to
copy paste...ummm
Any help would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks a lot.
