Mac and Matt,

Quote:

If the entire thing was highlighted (ctrl-a, select all) and you hit the Spacebar, the whole thing would have been replaced with a single space.

But the Saved file could have been reopened or an Undo should have brought things back as well.




Yes, that is what happened on in Microsoft Works Word. However, the saved file would not open.

When I opened Open Office, the un-highlighted text was deleted by hitting the space bar and was brought back by control-Z. This happened a couple times and then quit.

As you say, "Stuff happens," but I hate to work 2 or 3 hours on a file and then have to repeat it. It's like preaching the same sermon twice on Sunday.
