I accidentally replaced xcel file with another-not in recycle bin
 

I just rcvd an attachment that had a similar name to one of my files and
accidentally "Saved As" and replaced it. Now I can't seem to recover the file
and it is NOT in my recycle bin. Help, please! It's months of work.

Unless you have a backup file somewhere, the original file is
gone forever.

Thank you Chip, that saved me alot of time trying to restore it. One more
question: If we have a server bkup tape from Friday, how would I get it off
of there?
