I pulled up wmay11.doc, deleted the only page, put in a few words, and then
saved it. Not good. I meant to save it as wmay11new.doc. Is it still
possible to retrieve the original somewhere? I couldn't do an undo, and
doubt that I use word backup (wbk). I thought I noticed some sort of doc
file in /temp.

Thanks. I guess I'll just accept the loss. I ran the trial version. It took
45 minutes and the results disappeared while I wasn't looking. Odd way to do
things. The file was not really all that important. Just aggravating that I
did it in.
