.xlK files

[vegasguy]

I’ve created an Excel (.xlsx) workbook using a Microsoft Access macro (example “Filename.xlsx”). When I do some work in Excel with the workbook and save it, a “Backup of Filename.xlk” is created automatically, in addition to the saved “Filename.xlsx” workbook. Can anyone tell me how to get Excel to stop creating the “Backup of Filename.xlk”?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,


See if this works (pulled from another site):


In xl2003, you can use:
File|SaveAs|Tools|General Options
and check/uncheck that "Always create backup" box.


This is a workbook by workbook setting (nothing to do with autorecovery).
