HI. I am an author and 30 mins ago I was finishing off a new chapter in my book when - i might have hit a key or a command bu the screen I was entering text onto disappeared and was replaced by a new file blank screen. I tried the 'back' button but there was nothing. I tried to open the file again but there was only the new blank file screen. I also lost my bottom windows bar with shortcuts and I couldn't get my windows command to open. I decided to use ctrl/alt/del and shut down the computer and re started - every other command would't work. When I re started and opened OO again the only file with the title was the blank page which replaced the 50 or so pages of text from my book. I had backed up until yesterday but have still lost a good 15 pages from today and this was all new stuff. Does anyone have any idea about a) what might have happened and b) is there anything I can do to get back the text file? loanmaker
