Look in the same folder for a file named "Backup of your doc's name.wbk". This will be present only if you had "Always create backup copy" checked in the Tools Options Save dialog, and would be a copy of the document as it was just before the last save. See http://www.gmayor.com/automatically_backup.htm and http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/AutomaticSave.htm for info on this. If neither of those works, and you have no other backup, then you're out of luck. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
