How does one ensure an automatic save function every 5 mins for any document you are working on. Yesterday I erased a doc I was on and had to rework from the start.

Well I understand that auto save is already present and saving your doc every 5 mins. But then why do you think, this did not happen yesterday in the following case?? I wrote one page of a long document and wanted to format it before proceeding. I selected the part to be formatted and instead erased it. I could not find that page again. I had to rewrite the matter.
