Default Can I access the previous version of a saved file?

Biff,

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, what I somehow managed to do was to
"save as" over an existing file name. It is the prior version of this "saved
as" file that I would love to find -- the one that existed before I "saved
as" into that same file name. I suspect that Jerry Lewis may be right on
this, though I wish he wasn't!

Mine does!

And they're not backup files: *.xlk

Not unless you have a backup copy. Excel does not keep previous versions.

I overwrote an excel file by mistake, using the save as command to an

"saved as" over it?
