I accidentaly saved a word document on top of an older word document, and I
have now lost the (very important) info that was on the old document... I
there a way of looking at the history of a document in order to retrieve the
original info that was in my original document? I hope this is clear...
Many thanks

If you've closed that document and/or haven't made a backup copy, no. It's
gone.

If you have Vista, look at the second help entry for "shadow copy". Start, Help
& Support. It maybe too late now, but it is useful to know for a future problem.
