When I open a doc andclose Word, the doc isn't in Recently Opened
The workaround is never to open messages directly from Outlook attachments
(particularly in versions before 2007), but to save them to the hard drive first. If you have opened the documents from the message and made changes, you *may* be able to recover them. See http://www.gmayor.com/outlook_attachments.htm . Word 2007 handles things a little differently, in that it will not readily allow you to save changes to the temporary location. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org PlarfySoober wrote: I often get Word .docs as attachments to email in Outlook 2003. I click on the .doc and it opens, and I look at it. But if I close the .doc and hope to see it again in the "Recently Opened Documents" list, it isn't there. Why don't these documents show up where they are supposed to? And is there a workaround? Thanks. Don. |
