Re: how do I choose where to save the backup copies of word files

[Graham Mayor]

Autorecover files are not backups in any sense of the word. They are merely
a means to recover parts of the document in the event of a crash. Backup
files created by Word are always saved in the same folder as the document.
You could of course mess around with this using vba - see
