Automatically save as ''3ds max 2015'' in 3ds max 2017

Is there a script to automatically save as 2015 while working in max 2017? Instead of manually choosing the 2015 version it would be very helpful if the save command in max 2017 is automated to save as 2015 or for that matter for any version one wwishes.

SAVE from the 3ds max FILE menu

Thank you! And is it also possible that the SAVE command from the max FILE menu automatically saves as lower version as well because this scipt saves only as a keyboard shortcut?

.

Create a custom toolbar button for the script or a menu entry and use it(instead of adding a keyboard shortcut)
