Backups
I use word 2002 and make backups of all my .doc files.
I wish I could have them created and kept in a totally different folder to unclutter the main one. Is that possible? Thank you |

Backups
Not if you're talking about the "Backup of filename.wbk" files, no. But
see http://www.gmayor.com/automatically_backup.htm for another approach. -- Suzanne S.

However, a true back up is only created when you place a copy on a different media than your hard drive. This may be on a second hard drive that you have installed in your computer (not a different partition), an external hard drive, an external ZIP disk, an external tape storage device, a CD or DVD, or e-mailed to someone else's computer. |

When working with Word, and using Word, a true "backup" in Word, is as Word defines it. Same as with any other program! "Backup" has many meanings and because you object to the one here, it's rude & crude and a waste to be throwing crap into the mis. |
