    Thanks for the suggestion Dave; though I already have Alt-Q set to explode symbols.I am thinking that having two files that are saving the latest work - is better than one.Statistics: Posted by Neil Blanchard — Thu Apr 18, 2019 11:58 am

Or you could include my dhSave macro (https://www.dhsoftware.com.au/dhsave.htm) into the shortcut to save a timestamped copy as well (the […]
