I've got 736 MB of RAM.
I did have the "always create backup copy" checked. Where is that backup
stored? Maybe that's something I haven't figured out?
I did have the recovery option checked too. The problem is, even though it
normally works fine, the two times I mentioned, even after the recovery,
everything was gone.

Your problem seems to be memory related. How much memory do you have?
Anything less than 256MB may give you a less than satisfactory experience.
To help you in the future, go to Tools > Options > Load/Save > General

That way, you should be able to recover all but a few seconds of work.
If you have space on your hard drive, also check "Always create backup
copy" listed just above the "Save AutoRecovery" line.

I've been using OOO for a couple of years now. Version 2.2 running on

"crashes" (locks up). No action. I've got a spreadsheet open. I have to
shut the computer off at the power strip. When I reboot, I get a restore
file box (which normally works fine). In these two cases, it looks like the
file is being restored, but when the spreadsheet opens, the data is gone.
Any thoughts or help?
(I'm not a computer whiz; I can generally get programs to work pretty well,
but that's about it).
