SUMMARY
=======

Many third-party programs that are used to check Microsoft Word for Windows
files (such as Grammatik) do not work correctly if the file is saved with a fast
save, rather than a normal save. A fast save appends changes to a document at
the end of a file, rather than rearranging the entire file to insert all changes
every time you save the file.

MORE INFORMATION
================

To turn off the Fast Saves feature in Word 97 for Windows, follow these steps:

1. On the Tools menu, click Options.

2. In the Options dialog box, click the Save tab.

3. Click to clear the Allow fast saves check box.
