Lost Word Doc

J

I opened an attachment form an email containing a doc.

I edited the document over a few days saving several times.

I closed word then reopened it and tried to retrieve the doc.

It is no where to be found. Any suggestions

Did you do a Save As and save that file to your hard drive or did you just
hit Save?

The directions for showing hidden files are not the same for VISTA
How do I do it in VISTA.

It was more apparent under the last MS version.

I used a save not a save as.

In that case you didn't save your document, because it didn't exist on
any permanent media. Maybe there's a temp file somewhere that contains
some of the content, but if you've used Word, or used the computer at
all, that's somewhat unlikely.
