in a situation like yours, i always try system restore to an earlier date to fix the screw up i did. no need to uninstall programs that way either. so much easier. i agree with the other poster, sometimes i get so furious with IT that i hang up on them and fix it myself!! if working on the computer is your income, you owe it to yourself to learn how they work so you can fix minor problems or be best friends with an IT or repair person you can call 24/7 without a huge price.

find System Restore on your computer.....sm
You need to find System Restore on your computer. Go to START, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, then click on System Restore and set it to a date when everything was working just fine and dandy for you (like a couple of days ago or so) and then everything should come up nice....the way it used to be for you. 
You may have gotten it back from the recycle bin, but system restore does not restore documents.

About system restore, sorry about that

I wonder if you can use System Restore
to recover that document. That worked for me once.
Have you tried doing a system restore?
.
You can restore your system, but I'm not sure if that will do it (sm)
Could it be in your recycle bin? If you see anything in there that could be it, right click and restore. If that doesn't help, you can restore your whole system back to a certain date. I have done this before when I got a virus I couldn't delete. Start, Run, msconfig <enter>, launch system restore. You will be given the chance to pick a date to restore back to.
do you have system restore?
If you use/have system restore set up, you can go back to the date prior to this problem, and things should go right back to normal....read about system restore on your system in the HELP (F1) area
System Restore
Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - System Restore.
You can also restore your system...
Go to Start, then All Programs, then Accessories, System Tools, then pick SYSTEM RESTORE.
Pick a date you're positive was before the virus was contracted, and restore to that date.
BTW, poster above about the malwarebytes site is correct...It works, and it's also pretty cool to watch it run and "quarantine" the viruses. My computer had 67 of them at one time, unbeknownst to me.
Good luck!!!
All hail System Restore! (sm)
The DSL went out in my complex the other day, and when it was restored, nothing I could do could restore connection on my work computer. The manager brought his laptop over and proved the connection was fine. My tech-savvy daughter and I checked and rechecked everything, then laughed when the Hardware Lord came home and rechecked all the same things we had tried.
Finally she reminded me about System Restore; I restored to the previous day, and all was well.
Don't know about System Restore on Windows XP systems? Go to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Restore and make sure yours is turned on and sufficient memory allocated. In addition to the automatic restore points WinXP schedules, make certain you create a restore point before you change any significant settings on your system or install or uninstall software. Note that it only restores settings, not deleted files or programs.
There are some forms of Spyware which hide out in system restore. The only way to get rid of them is to turn it off and erase all previous restore points.
Thought I'd post this as this feature has saved me a lot of grief on several occasions.
I would try a system restore to before you started...sm
That should clear up any problems you've had since then. You can find it in your control panel, performance and maintenance and then system, where you'll find system restore. Choose a date to before you started work there. Or you can buy the programs out there that fixes problems like this, like Fix-It Ultimate 6. I know they have them at Walmart for $20. Good luck!
My system restore is not working so I cannot do this..nm

If I am right I did not "set up" my system restore...sm
Your system restore as I understand it automatically makes its own restore dates. You can make your own restore dates also. I have not done any set up regarding system restore and have used it several times in the past. Check it out on your pc with any luck you may be able to use it...Good Luck...
do a system restore. see if that helps. nm

I just did a system restore and that seems to have helped. nm

Welcome! System restore is a lifesaver
I have used it many times. I always check for simpler solutions, but if there are none, this does just what it says and at least allows you to rule out certain things.
System restore won't work for this.
The icon on the toolbar is controlled by the normal.dot file and system restore does not affect that file. You can take the icon off the toolbar by holding down on the Alt key and dragging the button down to the document window with your mouse. You can also open the customize dialog box on the tools menu and drag it off that way.
Do you have a system restore option
on your computer where you can set it to how it was working on a past date?
Easy Fix...System Restore
I was able to ditch the XP Antivirus 2009 bug by rebooting, going back into Windows in safe mode, then doing a system restore to a couple of days prior (click Start, Help and Support, type in "system restore" and you'll get the system restore wizard). Pesky bug hit me earlier this week when I decided to work a late-nighter and didn't have the time or stamina for marathon troubleshooting!
I would uninstall SP3 and do a system restore.
I've read that SP3 can be problematic.
system restore or auto recovery does not--sm
restore save documents as they were previous to being saved. Once they are saved, that is it. System restore will not bring it back.
Restore System or lower resolution did it for me sm
I got a new monitor that wouldn't work in Word so I set it to the old, smaller resolution and it works in Word just fine now. On another computer Restore System fixes absolutely everything, saves my life over and over again!
Only if you have a backup of your normal.dot file. System Restore will not
xx
lost files. I worship the god of system restore.
That said, once a week i copy everything I value onto CD and make 2 copies. One goes to my parents house and one I keep on hand. My parents live 30 miles away and I consider that a small price to pay for peace of mind. I had a major computer malfunction once and I was down for almost 3 weeks. It was a nightmare. I have since learned...back up, back up, back up. Good luck with retrieving or finding your lost informaiton.
Windows 2000 is the same. Accessories, system restore. nm

System Restore does not affect documents, only program files.

You might have to do a system restore to the time before she sent file. Vista is still too buggy

System restore does not affect documents, only program files.
You will not lose any documents you've created. Restore does nothing to the normal.dot or other templates.
You can also access system restore thru Help and Support in Start menu. nm.

People always seem to have to find fault in everything anytime there is a change. No, we are not
We have implemented links to various keywords and it will be growing over time. At present, we have about a dozen keywords that you can link to when there is a reference made in a post by a poster. We felt that visitors would WELCOME information that they may be seeking.
Regarding Medquist, it's no secret that the company outsources offshore. That has been made public my MedQuist for some time now.

recommend adware, free, but if you can do a system RESTORE, it is much, much easier than battling it
i used to spend days trying to get crap off my computer. learned to back up to system restore from a few days prior to when i noticed everything happening and works like magic!! so much of an easier solution. but several tech support have told me adware and i run it weekly.
Temp files disappear when you shut down Word. System restore does not recover documents .

Can't you log onto MQ's system and find that out?
I don't know about anyone else, but I would never stay with a company that didn't have enough work to keep me busy.
Meditech is an operating system and Fusion is voice for a dictation system

Let me know. I will be more than happy to lend my marketing experience and anything else that needs to be done.
It happens with all groups, everywhere, anytime…
this post was like if you let your children go to daycare, see what happens. The world has become so evil that it just does not apply to if you have your children in day care. Remember about the mother in Texas, stay at home, who drowned her 5 children at 1 time. Beautiful children and yet a mother no less. You cannot just say not on my watch. That is what I was speaking about. I think lots of people have their heads in the sand thinking just home front is safe and secure.
I think anytime you get a raise you should
thank your lucky stars. I have been doing this for over 20 years and I cannot even remember a raise, probably in the 80s or early 90s? I think most places, the companies here, are not giving raises these days. I make less than the 80s and 90s now. Others will make more but they are probably the ones who have their own accounts.
Here's you a link on it. Won't be anytime soon.

Anytime Felicia, I enjoy
telling people where to put things.
READ ingredients!! Anytime you see
(meat) *byproducts* you are getting *and paying for* mystery meat that *you would not choose to feed to your beloved animal* if you could see what it was. It's not far-fetched at all to call it "road-kill!"
Good rule of thumb: Most of the mega-corporations out there making dog/cat food and spending BIG BUCKs for advertisement of how great their product is - are usually the ones most guilty of scamming you by adding unhealthy ingredients.
It's not that difficult to find quality food for your best friends -
keep us posted and you can email me anytime.
 You can do it!
Anytime someone makes a suggestion for an -sm

I love my ESL docs and would see one anytime sm
over an English as first language doc. All they care about is money, not patient care. I think the ESLs actually CARE about their patients.
Anytime a company does not honor its own paydates,
I would never give a 2nd chance to miss it.
If you have anything in writing or email, I would take that to an attorney. They owe you money. You were given a paydate and they failed to pay. I would also take to the attorney a list of dates/times you tried to contact management, who you were trying to contact, at what number/address, and the response you received.
Not honoring paydates is a zero tolerance issue in my book.
I would make sure at the very least to contact the Better Business Bureau and file a complaint.
Good luck.
