Downloaded document - is it saved in a temp file?
I am using MS WOrd 2003
I received a document as an attachment in Word. I downloaded the document, but did not save it into a new file. I worked on the document for quite a while, making changes. Then I saved the document. (Did not "Save As" into a new document. Just hit save. I know, it's my fault). Then closed the document. Went to open it again and realized that I must have been saving the temporary document that was opened when I downloaded the document. Now I can't locate it anywhere. I assume that WORD saves it as a temp file somehow. But I can't figure out how or where. Can you help? Thanks. Dale |

You should never open Word attachments directly from e-mail - however it
*may* be possible to recover your changes.
