duplicate files
Whenever I save a file I get a duplicate file - I am now getting three.
These do not appear to be back up files but clones . When I delete one - all two or three including the one I want are deleted at the same time This does not happen in other Microsoft applications |

Word always tries to create a temporary file at the same place where the original is stored as long as you have the file open. 2cents Robert -- /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | MS \ / | MVP X Against HTML | for / \ in e-mail & news | Word |

duplicate files
THank you Robert but it is not the temporary file - they appear when I search for a file and there are no files open.

duplicate files
It is impossible to have three (or even two) files of the same name in the
same folder, so where are you seeing these 'duplicate' files? The fact that by deleting one the others are deleted suggests that they are all different views of the same file. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Cloned? wrote: THank you Robert but it is not the temporary file - they appear when I search for a file and there are no files open.
