My Workspaces are empty????

Hello

Strange. This morning I'm re-opening MC and all workspaces that where opened on my last session look empty. Nothing, Nada, Rien.

The workspace name is still valid, it open in an empty or a new workspace.

What could cause that?
Could I recuperate them?

Searching for a function to multiply by "10x " [SOLVED]

Hello

My English is not perfect, so I don't know what to look for in the help

I'm looking for a function that will multiply a number by 10 * number of time.

In French, we call that an "Exposant" 10² = 100 "10 Exposant 2" = 100

What is the function that do that? Number * function(2)
