Accidental Change All (am I alone?)

[Syed Zaeem Hosain (Syed.Hosain@aeris.net)]

I have had this happen on a few relatively rare occasions ... and have not looked into how to prevent it.

But, it is one of the reasons I copy the files + book into an archive folder below the working folder before an editing session for any given document.

So, yeah, I could mess up what I worked on "that day" (usually not many hours, since I am not always editing stuff), but not from before that.

Then my backup solution (I use and love ShadowProtect from www.storagecraft.com<http://www.storagecraft.com>) protects me further with older copies if I really munged things badly enough! This backs up twice a day in my configuration - but it can do "continuous" too.

Hi,

We have recently  had 2 incidents where the Change All operation was launched accidently - the dialog box is open and has the focus and the writer accidently, or in another goal, uses the ALT-A key combination. Change All is launched - no permission is asked and no Cancel or Undo is available. If working in a book, the changes are book wide! Can be catastrophic, believe me.

Have you experienced this? Do you know of any solutions?

Many thanks,

Stephen O'BRIEN
