Default can't "undo" to original document

I accidentally hit Ctrl S and saved a document. Unfortunately, I meant to do
a Save As, instead. Is there anyway to recover my original document? I
haven't closed the file, yet. I know in Word you can "undo" multiple actions.
Is it possible to do that in Excel, also?

If running version 2007, saving does not clear the undo stack so you should
be able to undo your changes.

Earlier versions do clear the stack so no reversal is available.
