software

I use XL2000, but Office recently had to be reinstalled. I use Autosave, and
I leave it set to save without prompting. Before the re-installation, it
retained those settings from day to day.

Now it doesn't. I have to adjust the settings each time I start XL up. I
can't see any way of making the settings permanent. Is this being caused by
some obscure registry problem maybe?

I would appreciate any thoughts.

Have you searched on previous posts? I remember this cropping up before but
can't remember the answer.

Thanks Giz,

I found the answer. It's related to this copy of Office 2000 not having been
updated to SR1-a and later (long story).
