Excel 2007 question involving SaveAs to .XLS

[Kirk Bubul]

After years with Office 2000 and 2003, I'm learning Excel 2007. I
want to keep the old .XLS file formats with my spreadsheets, none of
which have anything fancier than a SumProduct here and there.

Question: When I do a SaveAs after working on an .XLS file, does
Excel 2007 remember that I want an .XLS file in the future or must
every Save be a SaveAS?

Thank in advance for any help.

Did you experiment?

If so, what did you discover?

If not, why not?

I'm too old to be daring and don't want to mess up my spreadsheets.
But you have emboldened me.

When experimenting, it doesn't matter if you mess up a copy of the workbook
inquestion.

To answer your original question.......Excel 2007 appears to remember the
format the file was "saved as" when next you click on "save"
