The macro on my web site is actually provided by Microsoft and you probably
already have it - however I have made it easily available for convenience.
The accompanying article http://www.gmayor.com/automatically_backup.htm
explains some alternatives.

No, Word has no built-in way to automatically save documents. For
more, see: http://word.mvps.org/faqs/general/AutomaticSave.htm.

However, Graham Mayor provides a macro for this purpose. Go to the
Downloadable files section of his website at http://www.gmayor.com
and look for "SaveReminder.zip".

I worked on a document and after a couple of hours it was not saved
automatically. Is that possible? How can I set that my document is
being saved every few minutes?
