SUMMARY
Some third-party programs that are used to check Microsoft Word for Windows files do not work correctly if the document is saved with a fast save, rather than a normal save. A fast save appends changes to a document to 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 Allow fast saves option, follow these steps:
 * 1) On the Tools menu, click Options.
 * 2) In the Options dialog box, click to select the Save tab.
 * 3) Click to clear the Allow fast saves check box, and then click OK.
