Word document worked on all day - great content lost reason error edition - backup anywhere?

Hi, Word v7 - can't believe I can not even find a previous version since the night before or in the morning.  He worked on the paper all day.  Opening, saving, closing.  Shut down the PC at some point.  Lost the main content of the document by highlighting and backspaced - remove effectively.  Then I saved file and File closed.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

  • Problem Word document with table conversion table of contents

    Hello

    I use MS Word 2003 and Acrobat 9 in Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

    I created the manual using Word, I put position (s) with 3 levels deep and created the table of contents in Word.
    It seems as expected. There are titles, subtitles and subtle (3rd level).

    Table of contents in Word works very well. No problem.

    In the PDFMaker options on the Bookmarks tab, I put 1 TOC with 3 levels.
    However, after you convert the entire document in PDF, bookmarks seem very strange.

    They contain only the titles (no subtitles at all), each bookmarked line ends with some number 3, 4 or 5 that I have not idea what it is and these bollmarks point to page table of contents no to the page, they should have.

    In Word > parameters-OCD I ticked the option "use hyperlinks instead of page numbers.

    I also tried in Adobe PDFMaker use not FAKE, but to use 'convert Word headings to bookmarks.
    The result was horrible. Double bookmarks, reverse a lot of bookmarks empty and level 1 level 2 positions (I think that created by blank lines in the charts on the pages).
    Please note that by using the same word headings create TOC without any problem!
    The only plus side was that some of these bookmarks came with correct links.

    These bokkmarks were created using "New bookmarks from structure" option in Acrobat (after conversion of the document)

    Modern laptop PC battery is smart. You don't do any damage in the battery while the laptop is running on current alternative. To some people say otherwise and there may be a very slight advantage in terms of reduction of charge cycles that are saved on the battery by deleting, but for me, the hassle of constantly take the battery now outweighs the very small gains.

    Hi white,.

    If I understand correctly, you can browse the documents located on the old user account.  If this is true, try to copy the files for the user account wished.   If so, take a look at this document if you have problems with the permissions of the folder.

    Hello

    I'm trying to convert a PDF into a word document, but I can't do it. the reason is I want a form of income tax which is in pdf format and I can not add all the details in the file...

    How to convert this file in word doc format, can anyone help please, step by step because I'm not an expert in this area...

    Concerning

    Adobe Acrobat (not Reader) will save PDFs in word files. It will cost however.

  • Find all occurrences of a term, through multiple Word documents and examine each instance in its local context (i.e. extracted)

    Hi all

    I'm looking for an easy way to find all occurrences of a term, through multiple Word documents and review of each instance of the word in its local context (i.e. extracted) without having to open each document.

    For example, if I want to search the term "religious atmosphere", the search results would be something like:

    Paper 22: '.. '. but the religious atmosphere had not evolved to the point where... »

    Paper 22: "...". not that the religious atmosphere was still too controversial for a settlement... »

    Document 35: "...". If anything, the religious atmosphere was still little developed for a city... »

    Document 35: "...". it in no way improve the religious atmosphere until the decision was... »

    Paper 42: '.. '. up to - what point, the religious atmosphere was very collegial with all the elements of... »

    Any Microsoft or utility 3 rd-party which can put each instance-by-side and in a context extract would be a real, real help!

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Jay

    Ken is perhaps more familiar with the Agent Ransack, I am, but a quick check she finds every instance of a string of text and shows the term in the context of a single line subject to the following:

    • At the end of the search, a list of the files found is accompanied by some statistics.
    • If you select one of the files found, each 'hit' for this file is displayed in the context of a single line.  In other words, you get a list of hits in context as in your original question.  Instead, you get a list of, say, 42 documents and then if you have selected the Document 22, you will see:
      • «.. but the religious atmosphere had not evolved to the point where... »
      • «.. . not that the religious atmosphere was still too controversial for a settlement... »
    • The display of content seems to work with OK * .doc, *.docx and files *.pdf; not so many other types of files - even if it looks for text in all kinds of other files.

    Agent Ransack is free.  Download and try it.  If you don't like, just uninstall.

    You can create word documents and powerpoint presentations, but you cannot save them directly on a normal USB.

    Microsoft made a version of office for iPad, you can find it in the App Store. Here is a link:

    There are usb drives that work with iPads, and you can save documents to those who use their own applications.

    My HP Officejet J4680 all-in-one ink jet printer will not print in Word 2010 documents. It will print .pdf and Excel 2010 documents. I ran printing HP and doctor Scan and check it and put to date and said all is fine. Just around checking on my computer it said in the devices that the printer is ok. I printed the test from the doctor of Hp Plug and it came out ok. Seems so that Word documents are the only problem. I installed Windows 10 earlier so not totally sure that's the problem I don't remember if I used the word since installation up to now.

    I bought this printer in 2010 and have had no problems with it and I can tell you that I have printed a large NUMBER of pages.

    Any ideas how to get this printer working?

    Thank you!

  • Word document open in Windows Mail - recorded while the work can't return

    I opened a Word document, use the Save button all working. Finish, but could not find him. I never saved the document in 'My Documents'. Must have registered somewhere, but where should I find it.

    It is somewhere between quite unlikely and very little probable that you will find anywhere.  When you open a document from the email that you open a temporary copy of the file, and unless you use "Save as" to save to a network drive or a location on your hard drive, this temporary copy is the one that is being updated.  In general, as soon as you close the e-mail message or e-mail program, the temporary copy went forever.

    You could try a search on your hard drive, including indexed and hidden locations and the files system and records, but it is not likely that you will find.
