How stupid can I be?

Just have to vent. Was messing with a new dynasty, writing it to an MS Works document, when I got an error message from MS Works that closed it out. I lost everything up to the last save, which is 2 freaknig seasons since I had the window open all day and was doing a little at a time when I had some free time (and the headache was gone enough to handle it).

I don't know how I can get any of that back. There were some very important early career developments that took place and now it's lost. that sucks. I thought for sure there was an auto-save that would have picked up most of my changes but I learned the hard way that there wasn't.

Sorry, just had to vent.

Every time MS Word crashes on me I just reopen it and all my unsaved work is "recovered."

Problem is that this was done in Works, not Word. I had assumed they would have the same type of backup features. This was the first time I typed anything in Works.

I'd approach anything named "MS Works" with caution, as it quite clearly does not...

Pretty stupid.



Sorry, I had to.

That sucks. I've had crap like that happen after adding very long entries. It makes you want to destroy something with lots of satisfying little pieces...
