Look in ToolsOptionsSave
Look at the 'Autorecovery Save Location' textbox. Your file should be in
the folder listed in that textbox. If it isn't, you've probably lost the
file.
You could also do a ChkDsk to see if a file is created. It would have a
name something like FILE0000001 in the root directory of your drive. If one
is created, try renaming it by adding a '.xls' extension and try pulling it
up.

I was in the process of finishing a drawing and database in excel when the
power went out for 14 hours. I can not locate the file. I had started with
a blank worksheet so it was default named Book 2. When I rebooted, it did
not reopen automatically nor do I see it listed in the Document recover
window. There is a listing of another Book2 but that is not the file. I do
have auto save enabled every 5 minutes and had the file open for a few hours.
Help!!!
