Hi,

I think that there were extensions to make backups. Still to be launched 
manually IIRC but it would add a time stamp so that you keep the history.

Beware, OP not subscribed to the list.

However the only way I can create a backup is similar to MS Word. I have to 
save the srpeadsheet.  Make a minor change (like at a dot at the bottom) are 
resave and now i can find the backup under appdata\4\user\roaming\backup.

Is this the only way to force a backup copy?

Ron,
Yes, to my knowledge a backup file is created when the document is saved.  
There is also the auto-recovery system which periodically saves the document 
data so it could be restored in case AOO crashes without saving the document.  
These are the only two backup systems that I know of in AOO.  Someone else may 
elaborate on that.
