Question about an Extension in Excel

Recently an employee noticed that after saving his excel file, another one
named backup***.xlk was created.

I am not educated that much with excel and haven't really been able to come
up with answers.

If I turn Autorecover off will this prevent this file from being created, or
is it possible there

is another reason this file is being created?

Thanks in advance for any help.

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).
 
Thanks, that was what I couldn't find
