Help Please - Lost files

[tech27]

My website is up but we lost all the local data including the *.pub file.
I've downloaded the site from the server but I can't get it back to a
Publisher file for editing.

Any suggestions?

Thank you!

Without the pub file I think it's called starting over from scratch.

Maybe using a file restore program could resurrect it from the hard drive.
All that is needed is the pub file and it will recreate the gif files. A
pretty good program for recovering files is drive rescue. Download to a
floppy and run it from a floppy. Don't disturb the data on the hard drive
for it may overwrite the pub file.

You can get drive rescue at:
