Unless you keep regular back-ups ( a neccessity for "mission-critical" work)
then I am afraid not. If you are changing data, it's worth creating a new version of the file BEFORE updating so that if you have any problems you have the chance to recover.

There is a (very) feint chance that your original file has not been
overwritten which depends on luck and how much the computer has been used -especially as three weeks has elapsed. You could get a data recovery program (like GetDataBack). This should be installed to and run from another hard disk to reduce the risk of overwriting the target file. You could also get a professional data recovery expert. Nothing is guaranteed but it depends on how desperate you are as to what you need to do. You seriously need a back up. It doesn't have to be too expensive - compared with the expense in money, time and stress of not having a backing-up regime. Have a look at www.1001solutions/backing-up.pdf for more information.
