how can i retrieve an unsaved word document
If you didn't save it, there is nothing to retrieve. If you opened it
directly from Outlook, there would probably be nothing to retrieve even if you had saved it, since it is saved in a temporary folder and deleted when you quit Word. -- Suzanne S.

No. When you edit a document directly from the attachment, everything goes
into a temporary folder. When you close Word and the attachment, the folder is automatically deleted. Next time, before you start editing, save the attachment to disk. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. zeek wrote: I opened up a word document that was an attachment to an email in outllook, worked on this document and forgot to save it and accidently clicked on no to save changes, can I retrieve this at all |

Hop into your time machine and tell your earlier self to not do this.
This is one, of a number, of reasons to not open attachments directly from email. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome!
