Saving Word doc in multiple folders

[PacRim Jim]

Does anyone know how to automate the periodic saving of a Word doc into three
different folders at once. I need to back up critical documents in three
places as I write them. Thanks in advance.

Doing it periodically is difficult, and likely to cause more problems than
it prevents -- Word documents with code running in the background are much
more prone to crashing and corruption than those without. Might be better
simply to trap the save event -- when the document is saved, copy it to the
back-up locations also.

Perhaps the SaveReminder add-in available from
http://www.gmayor.com/downloads.htm would help you (don't be misled by the
name).

See also - http://www.gmayor.com/automatically_backup.htm which shows how to
save to multiple locations (two in the example). I too am not convinced of
the 'benefit' of automatically saving a document. Get into the habit of
saving regularly when*you* want to save.
