That's a good question... I have a feeling that most folks don't want the
backup file, although I've no idea why not. Perhaps it's just an oversight
by the programmers, but there's probably a reason behing it.

In Version 2 (I can't speak for other versions) you go to Tools -
Options -
Load/Save - General and check the box for "always create backups". If
you
scroll up from Open/Save to OpenOffice.org and pick Paths you can see
where it
sends the backups.
Ah. That solves the problem. I'm screwed for the one I lost, but that
box is
now checked. And I just did a save on another file and it now made a .bak
version of it in the backup folder.
So the only remaining question is, why the hell didn't the install
utility have
that box checked by default?
