HOW TO RETRIVE DELETED INFORMATION AFTER SAVING.

[missy]

I deleted the contents of a number of cells and then clicked save i then
realised that i had deleted the wrong cells, how can i undo or retrieve the
information that i deleted now that i saved it.

Sorry, but you can not if you have saved the file. If you do not have a
backup you'll just have to recreate the data.

A workaround is to apply undo multiple times.

Bob - do you know how many levels of undo Microsoft Word 2008 supports (i.e. 10)?

No. After saving, Undo is reset.

Take a look at "Excel Specifications" in XL Help

*Word*???? Its Undo facility works differently. It does not get cleared on
Save nor are there "non-undoable" actions as there are in Excel. I believe
the number is 99 but that can be a bit deceptive.
