Probably not. It probably belongs to LurfysDad.

Last week, we bought new PCs and are also upgrading from Office 2000
to Office 2007. I have only used Word 2007 a few times and am trying
to get used to the completely new interface.

I just opened a document (A) containing a log of home repairs. The
last time I opened it was 6-8 months ago on the old machines using
Word 2000.

When Word opened, there was a new panel on the left entitled "Document
recovery". Inside is a list entitled "Available files" containing a
single document (B), which is a completely different document. I am
pretty sure that document B has never been opened on the new machine.

What does this mean?

The help indicates that document B had some kind of a problem (wasn't
saved properly). I don't think it has ever been opened on this machine
(just a week old). It has been opened on the old machine since the
files were copied over and there were no errors.

This message has nothing to do with document A, right?
