Holli,
#1. Yes and no. Personally, I would keep the last 48hours worth
just in case someone needs to recover a recent file.
#2 It already does this. Temp files only get left behind when Word
is not exited properly. Such as when there are power failures
(real and/or operator induced) or system lock-ups.
