I was clicking on a help topic and realized as it was
loading the help screen, that I needed to click on the
other topic. I clicked several times and then somehow it
clicked something in the background in the worksheet, my
worksheet is now blank, and all the data is gone. Is
there ANYWAY at all to get the workbook again in the
condition it was before the accidental last save???
 
Sorry to Say, but AFAIK there is no way to recover your files except of
course if you have made a back up copy.

Accidentally saving the workbook should not delete your data.

You have done something else to clear the data. Have you just moved it
off-screen perhaps?

Did you insert a new worksheet through Insert>Insert Worksheet?

Did you open a new window through Window>New Window?

Did you open a new workbook through File>New>Workbook?

Have you for sure saved the workbook with the changes?

Have you since closed the workbook and Excel?

If the workbook properties were to set to save a backup, search for *.XLK
files.
