I was working in an excel document and clicked out of it. When it asked me to save the document I said yes and lost all my original work but saved the new. I know I should have clicked "Save as" but I didn't. Is there any way to retrieve that original?

Thanks :biggrin:

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"

No, not as far as I know, bad luck!

Unless you had created a Windows Restore Point that fell between the creation of the original workbook and your editing of it.

Extremely long shot, but you didn't email a copy to anyone by any chance?
