anyway of retreaving this doc? i looked at system restore but that was 5 hrs
before the problem happened.. so that was no help. I am useing microsoft
windows xp.
 
You've lost your work. If Works works like Word, you may be lucky in that the auto
recovery feature works and you might recover some of your document when you re-open
the program.
If not, start typing.
 
System Restore can't help as it doesn't monitor text files. Try checking
your Temp files to see if a copy was saved there.

Click to expand...

You can also look in My Documents and the Temp folder for your user for a
file with a WBK extension and try opening that in Word.
