My server's e-mail reply page suddenly appeared on my word documents page in
place of the document. I deleted the server's page, but it also deleted the
document page and only left a gray colored page with a blinking cursor. How
do I retrieve the document page?

Hi 'The old guy',

You can simply re-load the document from the backups you keep to guard against just such an occurrence.

If you don't have a backup of the document, do a search for "hex editor"
and download one of those you find. You can at least get some of the
data back (it won't be formatted, though). I use a program called
CCleaner which is pretty good at cleaning up the hard disk; when I
accessed it today they were advertising a new file recovery tool:
http://www.recuva.com/. I haven't used it so I can't say how good it is.
