All office files have this feature, Right click on any Office file (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc) and select properties, You will see Custom and summery, in these two tabs you can type any thing you want, and in Explorer these info will be shown in the ToolTip and in the status bar.\n\nFor all other kinds of files, i belive this will be easy in the new Windows VISTA.

I know a few programs like Outlook may save things for you as a draft, but I don't much hear of regular programs actually doing that. (That's why in school we were told to "save save save!") \n\nHave you opened the program and just hit save to check to see where it has been saving to and see if the file is among them? When you go to File>Open, does that program have a "open recent document" option that lists the last few things you've done? But, if you've used search and had it look through the entire system and can't find it at all then it may be gone, sorry. : (

Highlight and copy your notes then open a new MS Word document and paste them into that then save and print. \nThat should do the trick :)

I don't know what kind of computer you have but it should have at least notepad, which is the bare min..  you could have a word programs like Microsoft word, or wordperfect. You can type up your document's in them and print them out with no problem. you should not need a special program but if your computer doesn't come with one, you would need to buy one.
