Default Recovered file


I think when word recovers a document, it is given a differnt name - and it
will ask you to save it - did you click on save or did you "save as" and gave
it a new name - if you clicked on save - it has been saved under the name it
was given after the recovery - it could be in the same folder under a
different name or - go to start - my recent documents and find it.

Hope this helps

I used a recovery file to finish up a project. I saved it several times and
closed out. When I go to the directory the older copy is there, not the one
I worked on. When I clicked on the recovery file it says it will open the
original document, so I thought that was what I was working in.

What in the world was I saving during the 2-3 period of working on the
document?
