Where does Mail save Word Attachments during editing?

[Guest]

I was editing a Word 2003 attachment document in Word 2007 (running Vista). I
repeatedly "saved" the document (not "saved as"). When I closed the document,
I couldnt find it anywhere; not even in recent documents. Where does Mail
save these attachments during editing? I know Word 2003 in XP saves in a
temporary file. I can't find my file now. Thanks

If you edited an attachment from Windows Mail in Word and saved the changes,
it is lost. You can only do this with Office products. You have to save
the attachment first and then edit it.

Thanks, Steve. That really sucks. I have Office 2007 installed, and was just
used to the way that Outlook & Word 2003 save these files automatically in a
temp folder.
4 hours down the tube!

You might check the Temporary Internet Files folder and see if you can find
it there.
