Changes to document not being saved

I recentlyupgraded my pc from win 98 to Win Xp. At the
same time, I upgraded from office 97 to Office 2000. I am
noticing that when iin Word 2000, if I make changes to
anexisting document and hit the save button, everything
appears to save just fine. If I then pull up that same
document a few days later, none of the changes I made were
actually saved. I have three different people using this
machine, each with their own profile. ANy ideas here? I'm
going nuts retyping everything every few days or so. Help!!

Are you making sure that your document is being saved to the correct location
and not a temporary file? I can't tell you how many times I have co-workers
that open a document (mostly from an email attachment) and just hit "save"
and then either can't find the document or it isn't the most current one
because it saved it to a temporary folder. I always use Save As so I can
make sure it is saving it under the right location and the right name.

Good luck.
