As a previous poster suggested, it sounds as though the autosave option
has been set.  May I suggest however that instead of using the default
system editor, you try the enhanced editor?  Set the editor as "EPM.EXE",
the parameters as "/w %a %z", and check the "Send compile errors" box.
The editor is a lot more powerful, and is WorkFrame enabled (meaning it
can communicate with WorkFrame, and highlight any compiler errors).  -tim
