G Gord Dibben Mar 20, 2005 #5 Urospin An internet search on "file recovery" will yield many such programs and services. First thing you do is stop using your computer to enhance your opportunity to recover data before it gets overwritten, if not overwritten already. Use someone else's computer to explore for your options. One more thought..are you on a network? Perhaps your IT prople backup every day. Gord Dibben Excel MVP
