Thanks for that Tristram, I realize all you said but I stupidly went ahead and
completed the form and then pressed Save as it had a name and then realized the
mistake.

One thing you must realise about opening attachments directly from within a
message in Outlook Express or for that matter I think Outlook is that it opens
them from a temporary folder. Therefore if you just press control+S to save
then it will save in the same location and will be gone by the time you need it.
The best approach with attachments is to "Save" them to a location that is
accessible to you rather than a temporary folder A compromise might be that if
you do open the attachment directly from the message always remember to select
a folder for the opened attachment to go into before leaving it then you will
be able to find it again.

Subject: [access-uk] Loosing Saved Files in outlook Express
Hi
Often I make a mistake when I get an attachment, e.g. I had a Word Document
by way of a Form today and opened it and completed it in Word. Then I just
clicked on Save and as the form already had a name it got saved rather than
Save As. It did not go in to My Documents but only into what I can describe as
an area on my computer I do not know how to access. It is some folder which
seems to begin with the legger G and has numbers and letters associated with
it. I presume it is some form of Temporary folder. How might I find this
folder to retreive my document?
