And you will not get an answer here since your question does not belong to the
Office newsgroup as is this one and secondly the reason you did not get answers
there is because you question does not make any sense

I posted this question in General Questions on 29th March, and in New Users
on 20th May - no reply from either as yet. It usrely is a basic question for
some of the MVP boffins in he Surely ... someone MUST know the answer??

Here we go:

If binary is more efficient speed and space-wise, why isn't it the default
format (or read "the best way to save a file)?

I'm trying to find out what the downside is before I save a majorly
important, large file with heaps of macros in binary and start moving on
with it to find a little way down the track I've made a terrible mistake! If
it isn't the
default there must be a reason - a down side - but I can't find anything in
Help to tell me.

Anyone know?
