For future reference, you can set Stata to save your do files each
time you run them (in Stata 13 at least). Although note that if Stata
crashed, sometimes you can luck out and find a copy of the last do
file run in the temp directory.

Type:

tempfile anything
display "`anything'"

(or just look at the path to the tempfiles run in the command window).
That will tell you where the temp directory is on your computer.
