If not, your file should still be sitting in there. Do you not do backups? If you don't, you now see one of the reasons you need to start. And losing just one file is an easy way to learn this lesson. Did you by any chance email it to somebody? And finally, you might check your files for any partly finished versions you may have saved along the way. if none of those work, I understand there are some data recovery companies out there that will take your hard drive and try to recover the data, but it means giving up your computer for awhile and I hear it's very expensive. Hope someone else has a better option for you. Brian
