Hi
i have windows XP and word 2003
In one file i had 1 page text and i have make save to continue the next day.
The next day i had open the file to continuing the text. After 10 or 12
lignes after a noise like ''tik'' all the text disappeared and only the 3
last words is there. In the directory windows/temp the recovery file have 2
pages blank in in page 3 have only the 3 last words and nothing else!!

Its possible to have this text again back?

tks
Andreas

You cannot have 2 empty pages followed by a third page with three
characters: there has to be something on those preceding two pages because
empty pages cannot exist. Toggle on the ShowAll command (Ctrl+Shift+8) and
take another look. My guess is that you have somehow assigned the hidden
attribute to the preceding text.
