Hi
I have been working on an excel document that was emailed to my G-mail
account. I would usually "save as" before working on it but I forgot. I did a
days work on it and saved it. It appeared to save (I had no pop ups when I
closed it) but I don't know where. I checked the email, it has hasn't saved
there. I have searched the entire hard drive it doesn't seem to be on there,
looked in temporary files etc. No luck. I was wondering if it would be saved
online somehow? It seems odd that it would accept that it had been saved and
disappear?

Thanks for your help

Cheers Jess


It's not online, no, but sometimes attachments are saved with ambiguous
names in mysterious locations. Try opening a file again via Gmail, Save
As, and note the folder the dialog suggests. You may well find your work
there.
