When I save an MS word document from my Kingston stick to my Documents folder, it disappears from my documents folder. Why does this happen and how can I stop it from happening?

I'd like to clarify a few things.

When you "save the document", are you transferring it from a flash drive to the My Documents folder on the main drive?

OR

Have you opened the document and then saving it to "My Documents" on the main drive?

OR

Is the "My Documents" folder one a folder on the "Kingston stick"?

Or are you doing something else?

I open it, then save it to My Documents on the computer hard drive.

And if after the open the Kingston file in Word and save to My Documents you hit refresh (F5) on MyDocuments, it's still not there?
