That depends on how you lost the document.
If Word crashed, there should be an AutoRecover file available. If "Always create backup copy" was selected in Tools | Options (Save tab) you can open a previous *.wbk version of the file. If the file was never saved, there is nothing to retrieve.

Hi Stefan,
It was not checked but "allow background saves" was as well as "Embed linguistic data" any other suggestions based on that? Word did not crash.

The "Allow background saves" option is covered in the article.
"Embed linguistic data" applies to input of handwriting and to speech recognition; see: Turn on or off saving handwritten input data http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/as...851181033.aspx I suspect you have to retype the document. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Baseball Paul" wrote in message ...
