A couple of users are reporting that large word documents they are working on
are occasionally reverting spontaneously to a previous version, even though
they are clicking the save button regularly. I have my doubts about this,
but they seem completely sincere. Is this a problem other people have
encountered, or is there something the users might be doing unconsciously
that other people have encountered?
 
Yes, I have had this problem! In a multiple page document-if you go in to
correct a typo or change a font, especially if you are anywhere near an
inserted object like an Excel worksheet or a picture, the whole document will
just go wacky! I've had it pop back to a previous version and also totally
mix up the pages where half of one page is on another page i.e. part of page
6 suddenly shows up in page 18, etc.
 
I can totally see this if they're trying to collaborate via e-mail and
editing the e-mail attachments.
