I opened a words document from my email and I didn't save as, but selected "open". So I typed in that document and clicked on the "save" icon. Then I realised that I can't find it anymore because in the first place, I only opened the document from the email.
But the edited document must have been saved somewhere?

When using Word to open a Word document within your email (I use Outlook so it may be different for other applications), just hitting Save puts the file into the cache'd location, which is to say your Temporary Internet Files folder within your Windows XP profile directory. The sub-directories it uses and where it stores them are typically hidden and so not visible within Windows Explorer by default. My sub-folder is called OLK799 so I know to go there when looking for that sort of file that got saved.

Do this,
Open the email again and pretend that you are going to save the email again, when you are about to do this, the screen will take you to the last place when you saved that document, getr a pen and paper and look at the top corner, it'll say where it was saved. As long as you remember which format you saved it as, then you shouldn't be having a big problem finding it.

ok...
do one thing follow the same procedure again that is try and open another words file from the email.u can use that one also no prob.click on open and then just type in or edit anything and click on save.there they will ask you for a filename...there you will find the address of the place where the file is being saved so try looking for it there and if you still dont get it then use the search hidden files option and enter the name of the file.
the same problem had arised with me once and it worked out for me this way...

the default save space is usually in the "My Documents" folder. You can always open word and see the last file you saved. They have a recent files list

If you just did this recently, try this....go back to that e-mail and reopen the document....or any other document for that matter.....then click File....Save As......That should show you what file your document was saved in by default, unless you changed the destination.

you prefer to do not something yet shop the report with .pdf extension thats all. like say you prefer to transform a international report call into PDF report. what you prefer to do is first open the report and choose report-saveAs. then you definately purely exchange the report extension as .pdf. thats all
