Any attachment should be saved to the hard drive before making
modifications.

When working on a Word Perfect document, you first have to click Save As
and dedicate a location for it to be saved. After that, clicking Save
occasionally, will save all new modifications, but not if Save As was
never implemented. When she closed WP, she should have seen a prompt, "Do
you want to save changes..........", which would have also have given her
the chance to Save As. AFAIK, she will have to start from scratch.

This actually is not an OE question, but a Corel (cnews.corel.com.), but I
believe you would get the same response there.

news
My wife did a lot of work on a WP document that I sent her as an
attachment,
but did not save it to the hard drive while doing so, or after she
finished
(she was just hitting "save" while she was working on it). Now that
she's
closed WP, is there any way we can locate the edited document? I've
tried
going back to the message and re-opening the attachment, but it is in the
same state it was when I originally sent it to her - i.e., all her work
has
been lost. And when I tried to find it by opening WP and using the File
List, it told me it couldn't locate that file.
