saved over a file

I accidentally saved over a file in publisher. Can I revert back to the original file?

Only if you can do a system restore to a previous time. I *think* that will
do the trick.

Close, but no cigar :-). That affects system files, not user files.

Oh well - I don't smoke anyway. I thought that might revert the file. Looks
like the original post might be SOL.

Well JL, I too thought the EXACT same as you, and that was the same thing I
mentioned to someone long ago, and I too was corrected about the system
file/user file thing. So, I applaud you. And, I too don't smoke. I have
never smoked *ANYTHING* ever in my life, and I will keep it that way (well,
except I have smoked my tires in a race or two ;-)

BTW, can you please email me at publisher@mvps.org?

You might look around in the temp files... Publisher creates temp files, could be the
previous save is there.

It wasn't me, was it?! If it wasn't - damn, I missed one! ;o)

If I knew Brian better I'd tell you he was hoping to find something other
than tires to smoke. He figured a woman my age, having been a teenager in
the high-70's, I might have a contact for him. ;-) But I don't know Brian
that well and he may not find that funny at all. (Some people have no sense
of humor at all. Their loss.)

Too funny :-). But you are correct, never had and never will have an
interest in smoking anything.

But, then again, NEVER SAY NEVER :-P
