Howdy Fred,

You mentioned above that you lost a lot of work because of an internal error. If you have the "autosave" feature turned on, you should be able to retrieve a file that is within some few minutes (5 is the default) of what you ended up with.

When you open Composer, look in File/Autosave -- file recovery (for the beta) or File/Recover autosaved file (in 1.9.7), and you should be able to find a file with your filename-Recover.not. This should be the latest auto-saved file from your session.

ttfn,
Sherry
