You should be able to retrieve it from memory, that is provided it's
still in your brain's memory banks. If you didn't save it then there is nothing to recover. There are no temp files, since those that may have been created were deleted when you opted to not save the changes, and a backup copy can only be created when you save the file. Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.

Sorry, HT. It just means you have to retype it.

As Anne noted, you'll have to recreate the document and hopefully
you'll be able to recall what you typed. Sorry, I wasn't trying to get your hopes up - just a little geek humor. :-) ~Beth Melton "HT" wrote in message ... ???? "You should be able to retrieve it from memory, that is provided it's still in your brain's memory banks." |
