From another member of this mailing list: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When you mention working for 4 hours or 6 hours and then losing your work, does this mean you did no file saves for the 4 hours or 6 hours? If so, yes there is something obvious you're doing wrong, you should save your work much more frequently. Ctrl+S is a real quick way to save. If I'm doing significant work, I normally save every few minutes. Hitting Ctrl+S takes literally less than one second. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
