Excel 2007 Backup file

A

AceRoadRunner

I use office 2007 and when I save a file in excel it creates a backup file
automatically. How do I stop this? I have tried unchecked any auto recovery
section I could find, but it still creates that pesky backup file. I hate
having to keep deleting the unneccesary extra file.

Any help or suggestion would be helpful. Thanks

Did you clear the checkbox against
'Save autorecover information every...'
Under Office button|Excel Options|Save?

Are the backups getting created in the directory under
'Auto recover file location'?
