Use your backup copy. If under Tools > Options > Save you have always make a
backup checked, write back and I'll tell you how to find the backup. (In the
meantime, don't even open the file.) If not, check it now and start typing.

I wrote a long article, saved it and then overwrote it, shortening it for
publication. I erroneously saved it as the original file rather than a
"Save
as" new file.
Is there any way to access the auto-back-up file of the original item?
(I've since saved the "newer' version as something else).
Thanks
