Excel has had autosave since XL2000. In that release it was an add-in, it was brought into the product as a standard feature in Excel 2002 (XP) so of course it's been in Excel 2003 and XL2007 too. It's on by default. You can look at the settings from the 'Office Button'Excel Options...Save -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England www.nickhodge.co.uk HIS "Alicia" wrote in message ...

There is no Autosave in XL2002 and 2003 as there was in earlier versions. Autorecovery from ToolsOptionsSave is it. This is not the same as the Autosave Add-in which made true incremental saves at intervals and alerted you before saving. Autorecovery just saves a temporary file which it deletes if Excel closes normally without incident. Alicia..........As far as Excel 2007...........I have no idea if the AUTOSAVE.XLA from Excel 2000 will function as it did in 2002 and 2003, if you can get your hands on a copy Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Wed, 7 Jun 2006 20:57:45 +0100, "Nick Hodge" wrote: Alicia Excel has had autosave since XL2000.

Gord, thank you - I found a similar thread you replied to with a link for '97
Autosave.xla and downloaded it. http://www.stat.jmu.edu/trep/Marchat/sp2001/Library.htm My only problem now is how to access it through Excel 2007 as it's totally different to any previous versions of Excel. If you have any ideas I would appreciate it. There is an add-in tab but even after downloading autosave, it just has the pdf capability under that section. Is there a specific place I should be downloading the file to for Excel to automatically read it? thanks again Alicia "Gord Dibben" wrote: Nick There is no Autosave in XL2002 and 2003 as there was in earlier versions.

Autosafe by JK when first loaded through ToolsAdd-ins pops up a dialog allowing
a path to be set, interval, language and others. Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Mon, 12 Jun 2006 20:35:46 +0100, "Nick Hodge" wrote: Alicia I'm not sure I remember how it was 'set' in XL2000.
