Default accidentally deleted two columns, can I recover them

Hi,

I have a database of customers' names, addresses, telephone numbers, and
their orders - listed column by column.

I have accidentally deleted the entire "name" column and the entire
"address" column for approx 5,000 customers. Unfortunately I did not realise
I had deleted the whole column instead of just one incorrect entry and
carried on with my work, pressing Save when i had finished.

Imagine my horror to find out two years worth of entries now have no names
and addresses attached to them and to be told by the pc helpline that because
I pressed Save after the deletion there is no way to recover the two columns.

HELP - does anyone know of anyway to retrieve them, are they still on the
computer somewhere - any suggestions welcome please.

Thank you
