Default How do I find a previous version of a recently saved document

If you overwrote the copy on your hard drive with the copy from your memory
stick, then it is gone.
You should always work from the hard drive and copy to removable media. Then
such problems shouldn't arise.
Download the Synctoy tool
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/u...o/synctoy.mspx
which will always ensure that you have the latest versions.

Unfortunately I saved the older version of the document from the
memory stick to the computer,and want to know if word might have
stored the pervious unsaved version and can I access it.
