Hi Joel - the quick answer is -- maybe. In Excell it is possible to set an
option to backup your file each time you save, so it could be there. Don't
know which version you're using but try this. Open a DIFFERENT ss, click
on
File / SAVE AS - then click on Tools icon on the toolbar then Genneral
Options. If there is a tick in the top box (always create backup) then
the
answer is Yes and it will be in the same drive as your ss (Backup of
name.xlk). Otherwise I'm afraid not. I know it will not make you feel any
better but we have all done this (in my case more than once).
Hope this helps --- Dika
Checking for the presence of a backup on a *different* spreadsheet won't
tell you much, as for Excel the option to create a backup is set up
separately at the time of doing the "Save As" for each file. For Word there
is a default that can be set, but not (as far as I am aware) for Excel.
It is a good habit to get into to set this option every time you save a new
file. I assume that Joel will do it in future!
