THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR REPLIES!!!!! MY GRAND ERROR WAS TO ASSUME THAT OPEN OFFICE WAS A SITE SO THANK YOU FOR THE CORRECTION. MAYBE THIS IS THE REASON I BELIEVED THAT THE DOCUMENTS WERE SAVED IN OPEN OFFICE *BUT I DID NOT DELETE THEM. *SOMETIME AFTER, I SWITCHED TO GOOGLE, THEN CHROME CAME TO MY ATTENTION. I CONTINUE TO USE CHROME.
