You type something up perhaps like a 2 hour warrenty document full of parts and somehow or another close it and not save it. I had 3 different excels open and I closed oen thinking it was one that wasnt needed/important and it was the one I been working on since lunch.

How the hell did you manage to do that since MS Office Applications ask you if you want to save before closing?

ALWAYS SAVE!

I always save regularly when I am working on something... u never know when your computer or the server hangs/crashes... I mean, Ctrl + S isn't that hard to press...
