Mr. Porterfield,

You, my friend, are a saviour! The restoration program you suggested worked wonders and I was able to restore about 95% of what I had lost. The missing 5% was because I had been a busy boy on my comp since accidentally erasing those files and they were wiped out by the time I posted here for help. Lesson learned, the hard way..as usual.

Thanks for your help!

No problem, glad you were able to recover most of the files.
