STUDY GUIDES1s.DOC -

Only this is the one that I was working on, the others were me testing my system's saving ability. And I tried checking it and it is only 22 pages not 40+

Did you check this one? The timeline is correct for when you saved the original document.

Yeah. that is just study guide1.doc but with S's in it. I used that to see if it would save any additional changes made to a document.

Also do you make regular backups of your system? I see you're running Data deposit box.

Yes, but it save the original prior to the additional 20+ pages made. For some reason, didn't backup after I had made all the changes.
