Return do.files

[Lucy Davtyan]

Hi. I have accidentally closed do.file without saving the changes. Is there anyway to return unsaved do.file?

Thank you

You can find where Stata store temporary files with:

. tempfile findout

. display "`findout'"
C:\Users\Scott\AppData\Local\Temp\ST_23e0_000002.tmp

In Windows all the Stata temporary files start with "ST" Take a look at the most recent files - you might be able to recover the do file.
