retrieve a hotmail attachment word document that was edited
I received an attachment via my hotmail inbox. I opened it and began a 4 hour
translation. I saved it paragraph by paragraph, now I can't find it. I need it for Friday evening today it Thursday. Do any of you have an idea of how I can retrieve this information? I would really appreciate your help, thanks in advance. When I was saving it, I did not press 'save as' I simply continue to press the save icon. |

I don't know where Hotmail stores is temporary files, but it *may* be
possible to recover your changes. See if http://www.gmayor.com/outlook_attachments.htm provides some clues. You should never open Word attachments directly from e-mail, though Office 2007 has introduced some safeguards that make this less inadvisable. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Thirtysomething wrote: I received an attachment via my hotmail inbox.

You should never work on attachmets straight from e-mail. You should save
them to your hard drive first and work on them from there. It would have been copied (by your e-mail client) to a temporary file and deleted by its housekeeping, If you still have the machine running and the e-mail client open there is a slight possibility the (amended) file still exists in the temporary location. I know nothing of hotmail but if you used Outlook to receive the mail from there, recent versions create temporary folders called OLK.... somewhere in your Temporary Internet Folders. -- Enjoy, Tony "Thirtysomething" wrote in message ...
