SUMMARY
=======

This article describes the automatic save game feature in Microsoft Golf 2001
Edition and Microsoft Links 2001.

MORE INFORMATION
================

When you play Golf 2001 Edition or Links 2001, the program automatically saves
the current game in the Lastgame file.

If a Lastgame file already exists on your computer, Golf 2001 Edition or Links
2001 renames the Lastgame file to the Oldlast file, and then creates a new
Lastgame file.

If the game stops responding (hangs) or quits unexpectedly, the next time you
start the game you are prompted to resume the interrupted game.

If you click Yes, the Lastgame file is used to start the game.

If you click No, a new game starts.

If you click No, but you want to resume the interrupted game, use the appropriate
method for your game.

Golf 2001 Edition
-----------------

In Golf 2001 Edition, click Saved Round, and then click Lastgame.

Links 2001
----------

In Links 2001, click Play Golf, click Resume, and then click Lastgame.
