Default File saved yesterday is blank today, how do I retrieve?

A file that I work on nearly everyday is now empty of any data. I saved
changes yesterday, and on opening today the worksheet has no data.
How can I retrieve a previous to yesterday version of this file?

Unless you have a backup process in place and can recover a copy from the
backup, the data is probably lost.

If you deleted a copy of it, you might find an older copy of it in the
Recovery Bin.

You might do a 'Search' of 'My Computer' to see if you accidentally saved it
somewhere that you don't remember saving the final copy.

Sorry to be the bearer of such bad tidings, but it looks like no one else
wanted to break it to you.

Make sure you have the right tab selected in the workbook.
