Layout saves not working

[soxsoxsox]

[edit: I checked to see if duplicating the layout and then making changes would work, and it does, so it appears that it's possible to have a corrupt layout? Is this a common problem in FMP 8?]

I just lost an entire day's worth of work due to a bug in FMPro 8, and I can't figure out what's going on.

I did a lot of tweaking with a layout, adding tabbed layout submenus, deleting a lot of fields, adding others, and formatting everything just so. When I exited out of FMPro and came back, none of my changes were there. None.

I've experimented with adding just one text field and one field, clicking "Save layout changes", exiting the program and coming back, and the changes still aren't there.

Obviously this is a problem. Can anyone think of some setting I may have missed? Shouldn't all layout changes be saved automatically, all the time?
