I am using Microsoft Office 2007. I accidentally cut some very important
information from my document. I'm hoping it was saved to the clipboard. by
mistake i closed the word Application.
after opening MS Word i found the paste icon was incative. how do i recover
my text.

Please explain me how to recover the clipboard item that i lost. it is very
important document to me.

Thanking you expecting a positive reply.

If it was a large amount of text, Word would have prompted you to save the
Clipboard contents. Apparently it didn't. If you have "Always create backup
copy" enabled in Office Button | Word Options | Advanced | Save, then there
will be a backup copy in the same folder named "Backup of filename.wbk,"
which will be the previous version. You can open that file, find the missing
content, and copy it to the Clipboard.

If you do not have the backup copy option enabled, now would be a good time
to enable it, since you can see how it can from time to time save your
bacon.

I also use word 07 and even with auto recovery on ,had many files on word clipboard ,which always came on when opened word ,until one day they all gone !
am not finding a advanced save backup copy function ?
I wish these files are still somewhere " and auslogics which will have to buy ,if no other choise will retrieve them all ,its a shame that after so many people got hurt by losing thier work and the pain is so intense ,unbearable ,and microsoft havent yet provided us with a complete solution once for all and ever ;
