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!
