I am using Office Pro 2007 and I have now lost two documents (partially
due to my own stupidity). I received an email with a Word attachment.
I opened the attachment and made some edits. I then clicked Save, then
Close. WHERE IS MY DOCUMENT?!?!?! Of course a link to this document
does not show up in the MRU (most recently used list) and it is no
where to be found anywhere on my hard drive. In previous versions of
Office I could find my document buried somewhere amongst the temporary
files but not anymore. Naturally, if I go back to my original email
and open the attachment again, it is in the same state as when I
received it, without my edits. I just can't believe that Microsoft
did not think of this after all these years and force a Save As...
window instead of letting idiots like me think that our changes have
been saved.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul
