Word 2008 document multiple backup

[skydiverMN]

I was told that Word 2008 can allow you to make multiple backups of a file over time, keeping 'n' number of different copies (basically, different versions). Does anyone know if this option is possible and, if so, how to enable it? Thanks!

There is a "always create backup copy" option in preferences->save panel. Maybe that will give you what you are looking for. I've never used that option.

I prefer to use the change tracking feature of Word.
