If you haven't closed the document, you can Undo back to where you started,
save again, then Redo and Save As. If you've already closed the document,
then unless you have a backup, the original document is gone.

I erased my old document when I was done (didnt close it out) and I typed
something new. Then when I went to save it and by actident I pressed

'save'
instead of 'save as' and it saved over the document I had before. How can

I
get that old document back?
