Hi,

If anyone can offer some advice, I would appreciate it.
I'm trying to recover a file that I spent three hours
working on today.

I opened an email attachment, modified it and then closed
it. Before closing it, the message asking whether I
wanted to save, cancel or don't save appeared. I clicked
SAVE. However, when I opened the attachment again to
continue working, no changes had been saved.

I did notice however that on the pull down menu,
under "recent documents", there were copies of the
document that had been saved. Unfortunately I had opened
a number of other files in between my initial work and
going back in to make some revisions to the attachement
so the saved file was no longer listed under "recent
documents".

Does anyone know how I can retrieve the saved version of
the attachment?

Many thanks.

Ward.
