As long as your promise to never do it again, use windows find to search the
HD for the filename.xls

I opened an excel document sent as email attachment. I did not save it to
disk. I worked on the document while open as an attachment and saved it.
When I went back to the e-mail and opened the atttachment my changes were
not
there. I have found several excel document in a temporary file but cannot
open them. The text import wizard says its delimited and it looks like it
is
encrypted. Were is my saved Excel attachment and how do I open it. I'm
new to Exel and I promise I will always save to disk in the future.
