Autosave present in O2K3 Basic but not O2K3 Pro

[JB]

We have numerous users running Office 2003 Std and Pro and none of them have
the autosave add-in as an option. I did a search through technet and one
person claimed that Autosave is no longer available with Office 2003.
However I found we had some Office 2003 basic cds and after installing this
toned down version, I see there is the Autosave feature available with the
Excel included with Office 2003 Basic.

My question is how can I get the autosave.xla / Autosave add-in to work with
my existing Office 2003 Pro installations. Reinstalling is an option, but
even when I do a manual setup (no MST) and choose full install or even custom
install and everything set to run from my computer, it doesn't get installed
so a hack does seem to be in order.

Third party solutions are not viable. I have tried them and they are
painful to use. Besides why should I have to pay extra for a third party
tool when the add-in *should* be there.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Hadrian

Hi J.B./Hadrian,

A number of add-ins and converters from Microsoft have been retired for possible security issues or just due to aging code. The
Autosave addin was retired after Office 2000.

Please check out the screenshot:

http://www.geocities.com/shadowconsultant/Autosave.bmp

The MSKB is inaccurate. Perhaps for Office 2003 Std and Pro this is true,
but not for Office 2003 Basic AS my screenshot proves.

So I shall revise / re-iterate my question: How can I hack it so
Autosave.xla is available for Office 2003 Pro.

I did a search on my hard drive and could not find any files named
autosave.xla or autosave.xll.

Thank you for any help you may be able to provide,

Hadrian

I got it

http://groups.google.com/group/micr...8a2?lnk=st&q=autosave+excel+2003&rnum=2&hl=en

If you grab the autosave.xla from O2K or O97 and stick it in the Library
folder, it will be available, or you can use the "optimized" mvp written
autosafe.zip. All in the above links. Thanks - Hadrian
