If you have backups enabled, then look for a file named "Backup of <original file name>.wbk".
If you're using Vista (Business, Ultimate, or Enterprise) right-click the file (in Windows Explorer), and see if the replaced version is listed in the Previous Versions tab.
If you're using Word 2003 or earlier and are using the Versions feature, then that would be an option (but, if you were using it, you'd likely know about it an wouldn't be asking for help).
Otherwise... whoops!

When saving a new page to an existing Word document (a test for an on-line
course at school, no less!) i mistakenly clicked "Replace exiting file"
instead of "Merge changes into existing file"
I have now lost the existing version of the test which was several pages
long. Is there any way to get that replaced version back?
Any help is incredibly appreciated.
