[mso] Re: Word Document Name or Path not Valid

If it was saved somewhere other than just the disk, then go back to that
computer and resave. If you happen to have a Mac that's not as old as the
5500, that would be good too. Word should be able to find it on the Mac as a
recent document. If Word doesn't have it as a recent document, go to the
Apple Menu and look under Recent Documents (I think this is an option on the
5500) and look there. You can also look places where it might have been
saved before or in the trash in case it's there. HTH!
