off topic - Sky Drive - Excel Files RRS feed

  •  

    I very recently began using SkyDrive to store and share files.  An Excel file was uploaded sucessfully to the SkyDrive.  I then "clicked" on the file stored on SkyDrive and was given the option to "OPEN" or "SAVE".  I chose "OPEN" which was done sucessfully. 

     

    For a few hours I worked on the file, making various, routine changes.  During that time I "SAVED" the flle but never did a "SAVE AS".  The file appeared to be saving properly.  At the end of the day, I simply closed Excel along with al files that I had been working on, including the one that had been opened from SkyDrive. 

     

    I am fairly confident that the updated file with my new work is somewhere but I cannot find it.  If I open the file again from SkyDrive, it is done without problems.  If I try to save this newly downloaded file, I get an error message of one sort or another.  All of the messages center around the previous version being open, already saved, or some sort of read only status.  Did the file save to a temporary folder similar to attachments in e-mail?  Can this saved file be found?  I have tried all of recent files, searches, etc.
