mr.mark, let me make a crude attempt. Someone pitch in and correct me please!
When working in a program, typing, or most anything, a mirror of what you are doing is being stored in memory. Should there be an interruption, power off, system freeze, any number of things to interrupt, what you were doing is stored in a File0001.CHK/File0002.CHK/ etc: If you go to C:> prompt you are supposed to open the last File and continue with the Saved portion. Doesn't usually work tho'. I delete them thus' using wildcard. C:>del *.chk, and they are all gone. Haven't run into trouble yet, not saying it cannot be done. Win/98 seems to handle this with ScanDisk.
Correction Anyone?
