The first one will automatically save your document on a given schedule set by you. Note that Word's automatic backup creates a true file, not just recovery information whenever you save a document. This is limited to one backup, though. Opening the main file and saving will overwrite the backup.

Graham has a two versioning Add-Ins, but neither automatically saves on a schedule. The other one is:



Save In Two Places add-in

If you have both Save Reminder and Save to Two Places add-ins installed the save reminder add-in should save to both locations if you have the schedule set to automatically save and the appropriate check box checked on the save reminder dialog.

Great, thanks for the help.

I got Save Reminder installed and it's working, but Save in Two Places isn't saving automatically in conjunction with Save Reminder. I tried saving to two local drives but it didn't work in either case. It saves if I run it manually though. Word 2007, Win XP SP3.

Never mind, I uninstalled Save Reminder because it interrupts whatever I'm doing when it saves. This wouldn't be a big deal if I didn't save that often but we have power failures here all the time and I have to save frequently. I understand it might be something that's unavoidable in Word, but considering my situation I don't think I can live with it. I'll just go back to saving manually.

Save in Two Places is very handy but (and I could be wrong) there doesn't seem to be a way to only add "Save Document" icon to the quick access toolbar, it's either two icons or none. With very limited space on the visible area of the toolbar two icons is a waste, especially since I only need one.

**EDIT** Okay, sorry. I figured out how to get just one icon. I was adding the wrong one. This add-in should come in handy.
