Aaaaah! Help!

I deleted a sheet, then saved the document. I just realized that I deleted the wrong sheet. By any chance, is there a way to "step back"? I had heard that with XP there was... but I'm probably wrong.

Thank you!
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Aloha...

Just taking a guess...

If you have XP and if you have admin privileges, you could try doing a system restore (start-->programs-->accessories-->system tools-->system restore

This allows you to go back to a restore date without losing data, it claims.

Check it out...carefully.

Thank you for your suggestion. I work on a "locked down" system at work and we don't have admin rights to our own computers, so I ended up having to re-create the workbook. :(

Fortunately, it wasn't too much information to try and reconfigure.

Thank you again!
