Help to recover over written excel file

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

I had an excel file called BOOKS on my desktop and the same on a USB storage
device. The one on my desktop was the latest and I have mistakenly moved the
old file from the USB key to the desk top and said yes to replace the file
with the same name. Can i get the other one back?

Office will create backup files of previous version IF you
have set that in the program. Also, the USB drive web site
may offer recovery utilities.
