Always save the document to your local HDD documents folder before editing.
The document in question will be somewhere in your Internet Temporary files: there's an awful lot of them. So use Windows Search, narrow the search to the Internet Temp folders and search for *.doc. But did you not try 'Recent Documents' in Word? -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "JB" wrote in message ...

The problem id the ie5 folder is apparently empty. I wonder if I have IE
configured to empty it every time I restart. I guess if that is the case the file has gone forever! JB "Terry Farrell" escreveu na mensagem ...

That's a possibility - unfortunately.

The file might be lost. Or since you aren't using Outlook, but Outlook
Express, it might also be in a different folder. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "JB" wrote in message ... Thanks. Problem is there is no OLK44 in the Temporray Internet Files folder! Now, what?

I think there's no question the document is a lost cause--a painful lesson
that one should never open an attachment directly and edit it. -- Suzanne S.
