Can't find saved train itinerary

I planned to purchase Paris to Lyon tickets today. They were to be held through the 21st, but I can't find them. The saved reservation info. appeared when I first logged on, but after a while of browsing the sight, it disappeared. How do I find my saved train info?

Not sure where you are, but from my rock its been May 22 for a little more than four hours now. It was probably in your memory then it got refreshed and it was the next day.

The shopping cart at http://ricksteves.raileurope.com/us/rail/point_to_point/triprequest.htm only holds items about 24 hours, so you'll have to start over.

I think SNCF web site similarly doesn't save things for very long, since discount rates have very few seats available and they need to keep refreshing the data. Rick’s France rail travel page has the link and tips for buying “Prems” rate TGV tickets through SNCF (cheap, reserved, nonrefundable, available three or four months ahead of your travel date) to print at home and pay with PayPal. It does not tend to work with US credit cards, unless you have an extra level of security set up.
