Is there any way to recover lost text in a wordpad document ?

I had a page of text. I copied a jpeg image from paint, pasted it into the wordpad doc, saved the changes and closed the document. When I opened it again, the only thing still there is the title, and a couple of words from the first paragraph. There is no other text and no images. I don't care about the images, as I still have these, but is there a way to recover the missing text. I know wordpad is not as sophisticated as Word, but any ideas or suggestions greatfully received.

Using XP Pro (sp2)

Thanks in advance Question

Hello,

You could try loading the document in a text editor such as Notepad and see if any of the text is still embedded in the document.
