Excel 2007 Backup files

How do I stop Excel 2007 from automatically making backup files? I cannot
find an option to turn it off.

The "Always create backup" option is on the Save As, Tools, General Options
dialog. This is the same as previous versions.

Thanks! I don't know how it was turned on when I moved from Excel 2003 to
2007. As I never turned it on, I'm guessing that it was set as a default by
our system administrator.

Hi! Jim,
Thank a lot. I was looking all the other options. I was able to make same scenario with word but excel was drving me nuts. I never think that MS does have general option hidden under Save As --> Tools.

Thanks

Hi Jim

Actually on my copy it isn't! And I have been tearing my hair out - in Save
As, I don't have a Tools option like I did on Excel 2003 - is this something
that should be turned on somewhere?

Thanks
