Default Is there a way to turn off the auto save function?

I deal with a large spreadsheet every day that auto saves itself and takes
ages meaning i cant use it while it is auto saving. is there a way to turn it
off. It is backed up every day so it is not essential,

Thanks

Hi Timbo29,

If you are using XL2003..

Open your file.

Select ToolsOptionsSave and check the Disble Auto Recovery box.

Hope this helps,

Gav.
