Default Excel File Disappeared!!??


Tried yesterday's files, no luck!

My backup is manual, not daily, so I can go back to my last copy but
that would still require re-inputting of info....

thnx

Hi Phil
A couple of options. Have you got a backup system ?? If so, check on the
backup.

Also, do a search for files modified "yesterday".

I used an Excel file yesterday, closed it, no problems. It's a file
that I use everyday; In fact, it's got its own shortcut on my
desktop.

I boot up this morning and the file is missing! Excel says it can't
find it...it's been renamed, deleted, or stolen by homeland
security!!!

I've searched in its home folder, the recycle bin, on my entire
computer, and also searched for anything that was close to the
original name.

NADA!!!!

I do have an old copy, but would prefer not to re-create some of the
data.

Any suggestions?

thnx
