Saving only changes
 
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?

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.

Hi Dave
I think I'd already come to the same conclusion, but it's worth asking.
I was aware of MSW's rapid save but don't use it - my documents are never
that long.
Many thanks for the response.
