    hello everyone;

    i recently migrated from office 2003 to 2007.
    all in all, i am satisfied with the new GUI features (MS people seems to be starting to learn from others, Ubuntu, for instance).
    there is, however, something i haven’t been able to find:
    in 2003, i was able to set that whenever i changed a file, another with the same name but (for excel instance), with extension xlk was created in same location.
    i cannot set that in 2007.
    F1 it seems to refer me to Restore, but that is not what i want, because it often happens that i change something, make a save which then i realize doesn’t work, and need to have access to whatever that file was before my latest save, and want to have easy access in same location.
    any help / suggestion / guidance will be appreciated.

    daniel rozenberg.

      Found IT!

      in the save dialog box, the Tools is (rather) hidden at the bottom, but when clicking it displays options to create backup, passwords to open and / or modify and / or open as read only.

      in 2003 was more evident.
