Urgent Help needed! MS Wrod/File problem

[Nikster]

Ok I agree this was stupid

I worked on 3 papers all night and while working I forgot to save one of them after making about 2 hours of changes. Now by mistake I opened the orignal file from disk while the 2 hour work file was still open and clicked on Revert !!! It was 6:30 in the morning and I was about to passout...I made is a foolish mistake.

Anyway to get back to the file I was working on?

First of all, leave Word alone and don't close it.
Then go to the directory where you are saving your documents and look for all tmp or wbk (I'm not sure about this prefix) temporary files. Open all of them in Word and with some luck you may get your old document back.
