I want to use Open Office 2.0 with Windows 98.  I keep some of my
spreadsheets on various removable disks that I also use on other
computers.  Therefore, I need to save the automatic backups in the
same directory as the original file is in (or at least on the same
disk).  I see three possible ways to do this:

1) Set Open Office to do it directly.  I looked through the menus, the
help file, and the FAQ archives and didn't find a way to do this.  The
best I could find was how to put the backup in the directory of my
choice which wouldn't change until I entered something new.  If I use
another disk with a different directory structure I would have problems.

Is there some code or something I can enter so that the backup
directory is the same as the file directory whatever that happens to be?

2) Manually enter the backup directory and have Open Office save this
as a part of each file.  This would be more work than 1) but if I only
have to enter each directory once I could live with it.  Can Open
Office do this?

3) Keep using Excel.  This is what I am trying to avoid.

Is there a way?

Thanks,

Jim Mueller
