Lost Excel File
After a power cut one of our machines which had an Excel spreadsheet open
would not restart. Windows would not run but I have been able to put the hard drive in another machine as a second drive and access the files on it. My problem is that the spreadsheet that was open has disapeared. I have tried a couple of free file recovery progs and have found a TMP file in the directory that the original was in. I am guessing that if I could start Office from the crashed drive then it would trigger the "recovered file" procedure. If I rename the TMP file to XLS then it will open but most it looks garbage. Is there another way to open one of these files? Please help. Many Thanks, Kevan |
