Microsoft Excel 2010 question

On prior editions of Microsoft Excel like 2003 and 2007, if you clicked on the "BACK" arrow, you would keep going BACK a prior step until you came to the last SAVE you did. Microsoft Excel 2010 does not work like that. If you keep clicking on the BACK arrow, you keep going back, even past your last SAVE. That is not good...my opinion. Can this be changed, similar to Excel 2003 or 2007 ? Thanks, Mike

Not exactly changed but you can use the backup and recovery option to good effect here :

Thanks Pam123 for the reply, but that is not what I was looking for. I was hoping that there was a setting within Excel itself, that would only GO BACK to the last save and then stop.

Excel 2010 also has a Redo button so if you Undo too many times, you should be able to Redo to get back to where you want to be.
