lostcarparkMicrosoft Word has just pissed me off. I noticed the table of contents in the document was out of date, so I right-clicked it to update. Crash!
I tried opening the document again, and was told it's in use by another user (despite being on my local drive). No sign of the recovery options. I'm about to reboot, which should get rid of the in use error, and maybe, just maybe, bring back the auto-recover version. But my hopes aren't high. I've probably lost about two hours work.
Please don't tell me how fab and groovy OpenOffice is. I know already, but I really can't install it at work. I expect it would work fine, but if there was ever a problem with one of my documents, the immediate response would be "why aren't you using the group standard?"
