Finding worksheet I saved over.

L

Linda

I opened a new worksheet while still working on saved one. Did not realise
that when I saved it saved it over the previous one. Is there any way to
retreive it, or has it gone forever. I am just learning and need help.

Linda,

It is gone forever unless you have a backup.

Excel should have prompted you about "The file exists.. are you SURE?"

HTH,

Thanks for letting me know. I just sort of hoped it would be somewere. Guess
we all learn by our mistakes. I'll never make that one again
