Here's what happened:

I have a source document that I've been saving on a Zip 100. Every time I update it, I do a drag-and-drop copy of the file onto a 3 1/5 floppy that I use as the backup disk.

Last night when I went to do that there was an error message that appeared when I went to do it saying that I couldn't copy and that I needed to make sure that the document wasn't write-protected.

The backup copy got deleted as a result and it never appeared in the recycle bin. And whenever I go to pull up the original, it crashes Word.

Does anyone know what happened? Can someone help me recover that document? I'm out about 6 months' work if I can't.

Thanks in advance.
