Default Retrieving a Deleted Spreadsheet

Hi,

Excel can do nothing to recover the data. You should get your backup copy
or contact IT and ask them to restore the original from a prior day.

If this helps, please click the Yes button

Cheers,

Gordon,
I believe that I saved by accident spreadsheet "contributions" to "income"
and when I did that I said "yes" and now I have two spreadsheets for
"contributions" and my income spreadsheet was deleted. Is it possible to
retrive the deleted information?

Saving as does not erase or delete the original.

If you just "saved as" a new name, the original workbook is still on your
computer, but without your latest changes.
