James Gillen Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Re: Musings on Random Musings Ok I'm a bit bitter tonight. And tomorrow it may all be corrected. But I'm not holding my breath (cause holding my breath for 15 hours is impossible) My brother, when he's trying to prop up my rapidly failing self-esteem, likes to call me a rock star. If that is true. I'm the guy who left the band before they got big. The one who people talk about in 'where are they now' shows. My single greatest talent is screwing up my life. I thought you were the rock star who got stuck in the giant cocoon on stage and couldn't break out until after the song was over. JG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Man Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 Re: Musings on Random Musings What was the issue? PM me for venting purposes. No, I was just working on a statement of work and Word "encountered a problem and had to close", i.e., crashed. I selected "reopen and retrieve my work", but it, like, didn't.

A close relative of the "Word makes you rename the document if you save it too many times" bug, no doubt. How about setting the autosave to "go off" every 5 minutes?
