Default automated 'Save as..' after 1 minute.

It would probably be simpler if you saved the types of documents you use in
this manner as templates. Then new documents created from them would always
require new names.

Many times I use an older document as a basis for the document I am
working on.

In order not to inadverterly save OVER that document, I would like to
make a (n automated) macro that prompts me to Save my current document
As .. (with possiblity to keep current name or use an other one),
after like 1 minute or so.

I have however no clue as how to to such a thing.

I think the SaveReminder add-in from Graham Mayor's site
(http://www.gmayor.com/downloads.htm) (GREAT tool BTW) can be used as
a basis, but my knowledge of this programming language is too limited
to make the macro myself.

My thanks to anyone who can help me with this.
