Was this a comment or a school paper? ?I worked almost an hour on it.
You are perfectly right.And what I have learned--the hard way--to do is to compose in a separate document. That way I can keep it overnight, play with it, fix it, modify it, alter it, amend it, change it, correct it, or just throw it out. Or, once in a rare while, just cut-and-paste into WLF! ?
Thanks @Liam!The content should be saved automatically; but if for whatever reason it didn't, and you lost it all, I'm afraid there's no way of recovering it,
Next time try the "Save the Draft" option that Stewart recently provided, especially if it's a long comment.
Don't feel bad; i've been in the same boat before (I think we all have): I've lost many comments because of computer problems, etc.
