how do i retrieve a deleted worksheet
"Deleted worksheet from Excel" <Deleted worksheet from
wrote in message ... When a file is deleted it isn't physically deleted and when file is saved it isn't necessarily over the original. Let me explain. The computer keeps a record of all the files on the hard disk. Think of it as an index. If you were to cross out a line in the index of a book the word or phrase will still be extant in the body of the book. (The difference with a computer is that the area of the 'lost' file is available for re-use). It is, therefore, possible to recover 'lost' files. As you will appreciate success depends on whether or not the area on the hard drive has been re-used. There are a number of software that will do the job. I have used and, therefore, can recommend 'Get data back' www.runtime.org. Restoration www.snapfiles.com/get/restoration.html is a freebee (which I have not used). It is highly recommended that the software is installed on and run from another hard disk (to decrease the possibility of overwriting the 'lost' file). All this assumes that, at least, the hard disk will spin. It is possible to recover data from a hard disk that doesn't spin. This is, however, a specialist (forensic) operation and will be charged accordingly. It wouldn't do any harm to find someone local who could do this for you and assess and possibly justify the charge against the cost (time, patience and money) of re-entering the 'lost' data. Some work on the amount of data recovered so if you're looking only for one file the charge may not amount to much (comparatively speaking), You should, perhaps, also think of getting a backing up system. You may like to have a look at my web site www.1001solutions.co.uk for more information. Regards. Bill Ridgeway Computer Solutions |
