I have an extremely important file on my computer that when I try to access I
get the message that the file cannot be found. NOT ONLY THAT...but the path
has actually been moved to .../localsettings/temp/TCDBO.tmp.myfile.xls '
cannot be found. Please , please, Lord, someone out there has to have an
answer to my dilema!!! Thanx for any and all help!!!

"file cannot be found"
 

If it is "an extremely important file" then you're sure to have a backup.
[And if you didn't this time, I bet you will next time!]

You can, of course, use the search facilities in Windows Explorer to look
for the file elsewhere with the old name, and/or look for alternative names
if you've got a good idea when it was last updated.

Of course I have a back up on a kingston 1gb disc that I also cannot get
into. I am like totally doomed!

Can you find the file TCDBO.tmp.myfile.xls in the local settings/temp folder?

If so, try changing the name to just myfile.xls.

Also.........why can't you access your backup on the kingston disk?
