Hi,

Have had several instances over the last 6 months where a file has been deleted off my hard disc (not in recycle bin) while being edited. If I'm lucky when I go to save the edits on a file I get a save as dialogue box with a temp file name (e.g. ~wrd1438.docx).
On two occasions I have lost the file altogether, which is rather worrying!
Running Office 2007 on XP all updates in place.
Thought it might have been limited to a couple of files sent to me via email possibly from foreign owners but today was my own file of many years standing.

If you reopen Word the file is still listed as a recent file, but if you click on it get file not found message.

Any thoughts guys?

Cheers

Martin
