Hyperlinks and Word Documents Disappearing

[Carolyn]

Hello,

I have a user who lost revisions she made to a document. She thinks it might
have happened because she had copied and pasted some text, including
hyperlinks, from a website into her document. When she opened the document
the next day, her changes were gone.

It's possible she closed the document and forgot to save her changes, but I
was wondering if anyone knows of a problem with hyperlinks in Word documents
causing updates to the document to be lost. Thanks.

There's nothing about pasting or hyperlinks that would cause a document to
disappear. Pasting can occasionally crash a document (eg if the pasted
matter contains something that Word can't handle) -- but you'd know about it
at the time if that happened.
