word document, macintosh, trial version
I am trying to retrieve the changes that I made to a document, I had the
auto save set to 10-min, but when I woke up (my computer was never turned
off) it reverted back to the old version. When it asked do you want to
revert to saved doc. I clicked NO, but nothing came up.
Can you help me?

I hope someone knows the answer to this. I've used Word, and automatic save
within Word, for years, but all of a sudden when I open a document it asks do
you want to revert to saved document. Does anyone know what this means?

It means, "you just tried to open a doc that is already open. As a
punishment for your minor slip of the memory, do you want me to go back to
the state of the doc as it was when you first opened it, and wipe out all
the changes you have made since?"

Lienor, I assume you aren't really on a Mac, and just added to an existing
thread, right?
