> Yes Yes! That fixed it!
I'm glad it worked out for you. Learned this lesson
the hard way. One year I was composing a Radio
World NAB Review article. It involved many parts
each of which addressed a different vendor.
I would Save after each new vendor. After the
sixth or so vendor Word gave me an error on Save
stating I could not Save a document with the same
filename. What? All I wanted to do was Save the existing
document. OK, wanna play rough? So can I. After
each new part, I would Save As with a new filename
such as RW1, RW2, etc.
When I went to put the parts into one document I
found Word had saved only the headers, NOT any of
the text. I tried to Undelete the temp files, all without
success. I had lost about 6 hours of work. I had to redo
all my work :-(
The only tale that equals or beats mine is another list
member who was composing his NAB article for Radio
Guide. He took a break only to find Automatic Updates
restarted his laptop. All his work was lost :-(
