way to get back the original document?

Do you mean you gave a new doc the same name as an old one, and you want the
old one back?

Yes. I think I know the answer, I just hoping there was something out there
I was unaware of... Thanks.

This would be a delightful time to figure out a backup routine that do you
religiously.

Maryk, if you have not saved the file, just close it without saving, if you
have saved it do you have a backup copy?

If you have not backed up the file other places to look for a copy, have you
e-mailed it? May be a copy in your sent items folder, if file was on a
network server it probably makes backups at sometime, check with you IT
person, have you gave the file to someone else that might have a copy of it?
Copy on another computer? Other wise I think it is gone, in the future
ALWAYS create backup files of your work.
