I don't see why it should be. The .wbk file is not affected by saving over a
current version.

But if you used save as and ignored the warning then it is gone.

If you have "Automatically create backup copy" checked on the Save
tab of Tools | Options, you can find the next-most-recent version of
the document as "Backup of filename.wbk" in the same folder with
the document (you'll have to select All Files to see it). If you
saved frequently while working, this may be very close to the final
version that you inadvertently overwrote.

I accidently saved an old file over the name of a newer version. By
some miracle is there a way to undo this? I have just lost myself
about 1/2 day of work? Help!
