strange file name

R

Roachman

I wrote a eulogy for my brother last Saturday. I thought I saved it.
Instead of a file named Toms eulogy it shows Tom%27s%20eulogy[1].doc
Can you help me find and open and properly save the file?

I'm sorry for your loss. The %27 and %20 are hex codes for ' and the space.
Sometimes, that's the way "Tom's eulogy" would be displayed as part of a
file name. It's not different from what you typed--it's just a different way
of representing it. As Suzanne suggested, did you open the file to see if it
contains the eulogy?
