This one woks in Word, I don't know about Excel but you can try:
If you go into Word and say open, then next to the open button, there is a
little arrow. If you click on that, there'll be an "open and repair"-demand.
I hope it can help.

I erased quite a few columns in my Excel spreadsheet and was planning on
saving the file under a new name. Unfortunatley, I saved the file under the
old name.

Is there any way to recover the old saved file. IS there version control in
Excel.

I am running Windows XP SP1.

Thanks for all your help.
