    You cannot recover an overwritten file. Do you have a backup copy?

    Hello Phoenix77, and welcome to Seven Forums. :)

    Check to see if you may have a previous version of the file available to restore.

    Many thanks for all the replies. I've tried everything with no luck. A hard lesson to learn but I'll be extra careful in future
