Word Autosave option

[Anil]

We are using MS Office Ver. 97. We want the autosave and always create
backup copy option to be enabled as default for all the systems. (Tools>
Options> Save).

It works for the normal installation without any problem once it is enabled.
But for those PCs where macros are installed, each time we have to enable
this option manually after logging in by the user.

Please help.

It sounds as if you have macros running that were recorded, possibly setting
some other save option. When Word records macros involving dialog boxes, it
isn't picky. It records all settings in the dialog box, not just those that
are changed.

The best thing to do would be to examine all AutoExec macros or all MAIN
macros in AutoExec modules for the settings and delete those statements or
change them to reflect your preferences.
