AutoSave abruptly stopped working

[mtntgr]

XP Pro SP3
Excel 2003 SP3


Hi,

After a very unusual forced shutdown (it took 20 minutes to be able to figure out why both browsers no longer opened!).
I found no sign of the latest sheet I had added to workbook.
When I checked the autorecovery function I found it was no longer working (set to 5 minutes). Tried different times and folders - zilch.
It was definitely working before.

I then tried installing AutoSafe from - http://www.jkp-ads.com/download.asp.
It installed fine, but shows no functionality or other signs of life.

Hoping to avoid any reinstalls of OS, etc...
Can't afford the time...

Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Could be worth checking Help...About Microsoft Excel...Disabled Items and see if anything is listed.

Resolved!

After another excel restart, excel asked me to add AutoSafe (i.e.- "Trust Access to Visual Basic Project").
The it started working - Yes!

Highly recommended - AutoSafe.
