While modifying an excel file in office 2007, the app crashed and the file is
no longer found. Is there a way to find the file? It had beeen saved
previously.

Go down to the DOS (command) prompt and get to the following point:

C:\

Type in at the above prompt:-

dir xxxxxx.xlsx /s

- where xxxxxx.xlsx is the name and extension of the file your're looking
for.

If the file is there the above command will tell you exactly where it is.

If my comments have helped please hit Yes.

Thanks.
