I have a client with 2 Excel 2007 documents. Lets name then excel1 and
excel2. Now the client has always worked in excel1. Recently however the
client suffered a system failure and excel1 was lost. Excel2 is a backup copy
of excel1, but it hasnt been backed up for more than 2 months, thus 2 months
worth of information has to be redone.
Urgent work has to take place and the client starts adding current data to
excel2 from 2day, thus there is a month data gap in the file.
Thru the wonder of hard drive recovery I was able to recover excel1 today.
Is it at all possible to merge or synchronize excel1 and excel2 with each
other so that one of them is completely up-to-date?

There's no automatic way of doing this. You'll need to look at the data
structure and decide which parts from which file you need, then do copy and
paste.
