2003 Backup loaction

T

I have set word, excel and powerpoint so they always create a backup
document. However this backup document is always created in the same location
where I save the origional file. In the idea world I would like the backup to
be on one of the other hardives on my machine. Is there anyway I can do this?

Try asking in a Windows group - backup is a solution that comes with Windows, not Office.

No, you cannot modify the backup location when you select "Always create
backup copy". The backup is always created in the same folder where the
original file is.
