Excel 2007 Undo Feature With Multiple Workbooks Open

[Renee]

Looking for feedback from anyone concerning this feature. We have by
accident found that when you have two separate workbooks open, make a change
in one, do a "Save", then go to the other workbook and activate it and then
hit the Undo feature, it defaults to the first workbook and undoes the last
change you made in it even though you saved it. We noted that when you do a
"Save" in Excel, the Undo feature button does not inactivate itself like it
does in Word, thereby, solidifying all changes you have made. It still
leaves the option for changes, which is okay, but it's when the undo feature
hops from one open workbook to another that is concerning.

Has anyone else had this experience yet? Any feedback or suggestions?

People have asked for years that a Save not clear the undo buffer and it was
finally added in Excel 2007. As far as switching back to the last workbook
when it had the last change, that's not new behavior.
