When you have created a file and input up to 2,000 key strokes of data, your word processor will automatically create an AUTO SAVE FILE, which will be updated every 2,000 strokes. Thus, in the event of an accidental power outage, all but the last input of your file (those after the last updating of the AUTO SAVE FILE) are safe. When you turn the power on with a diskette inserted in the drive, the system automatically searches for the AUTO SAVE FILE. If such a file exists, the system recognizes that a power loss occurred during the last session with that diskette, and the following message telling you how to recover the lost file will appear: POWER FAILURE....recover AUTO SAVE FILE?

AUTO
SAVE
FILE

you
turn
the
power
on,
the
AUTO
SAVE
FILE
will
not
be
found,
and
the
above
mes-
sage
