[QUOTE="Jairo Sequeira, post: 1618564, member: 336679"] I finally figured out the problem of the asterisk bug. Contrary to the Administrator's opinion, that this is a problem resulting from Microsoft product, the glitch is due to the autosave feature that comes with MacBook Air. The solution is: open Word/file/preferences/Save/uncheck auto recover info. Leave only check the following: Always Create a backup copy. Also check Save Preview Picture With New Documents. Also check Prompt for Document Properties. Once again the problem is with with the Auto Recover Info feature. Don't trust that feature because it will destroy your documents. After you have done the above and you are working on your documents, save manually: Command/S. I hope this help those souls who lost their documents. [/QUOTE]
