Stop using the computer in question immediately, if you haven't done
so already. Download an undelete program (here's one: http://www3.telus.net/mikebike/RESTORATION.html but there are several
others to choose from; do a Google search) on a friend's computer and
bring it to yours on a floppy or CD to try.
I appreciate the response, and will most certainly keep it noted for the
future. However, at this time I think I need to investigate the possibility
of a commercial service that recovers data from failed hard drives.

I highly recommend Drive Savers. No, I don't work for them - I wish I
did! I've used them for years on behalf of clients, they've done a great
job, and they are wonderful to deal with. Not cheap mind you, but some
insurance companies are now covering data recovery expenses so check
with yours.

I had a 999 day history,lost it all. Tried 29 recovery programs, 13 binary
and 6 Index dat. Sent to Aero data recovery, never seen anything so bad .
They sent it on to ESS data recovery. Recovered 400,000 lines, compacted to
190,000 lines of excellent script. 320 Gig HDD. Cost $895.00 including 2
dvd's and 1 250 Gig external HDD.
They return a USB connectable hard disk containing folders matching
the original for both recovered good files & part-recovered bad files
(the latter usually unusable).
