Default can anyone tell me how to rescue a file I saved over?

I worked on a document this morning and when I went to open it a box came up
asking me if I wanted to replace the document with my blank doc scrren that I
opened and I accidentally pressed yes and lost all my work. I went into
rescue and there was no other version, Is there any hope I can still get my
earlier document?

There is very little chance of recovering the file, however you *may* be
able to recover previously saved versions with file recovery software run
from removable media, but the more you use your PC in the interim the less
chance you have of recovery.
