I opened an email containing a word document. I saved the document into a
file ...I thought. I edited the document (2 hours) and saved periodically
throughout.

Now I can't find the document, only the orioginal uneditied version.

I think I saved it in a temporary file of some sort. But I can't find it.

Please help! Any suggestions? I tried searches and turned up nothing. I
work in Windows XP home which converts everything to Word Perfect. The
orginal document was micrsoft word I think.

Do an advanced search by date and time that you were saving the file.

- Open Search

- All files and folders

- "When was it modified?"

- from: date

- to: date

Thanks Joe, I tried that already with no results. Just tried again and
still can't find. It is in a temporary Internet file somewhere? thanks for
your help. dg

It's not looking good.. if it was saved in a TIF folder, it's possibly
been overwritten.
