Problem

Every time I edit a CVS or 2003-2007 Excel file it gives a warning that it will be saved in compatibility mode. I have this habit of saving every other minute via Ctrl+S and the window keeps popping up. How can I disable this annoying 'Compatibility mode pop-up'?

Fix for: How to disable the annoying compatibility warnings in Excel?

Low Risk

For Excel 2003-2007 files you can uncheck the "Check compatibility when saving this workbook" option in the dialog that pops up. This only applies to the specific workbook you're saving. But, that would be enough to get the pop up to stop showing up…
