quick query- the file had a name and everything and it was saved on desktop, what do you mean by 'same directory'?- the latest version wasn't on desktop.

Quote from: evie axis of evil- you really know how to kick someone when they're down-don't go into counselling will you- the tips would have been appreicated more, if they'd come without the barbs. thanks nonetheless
Thats just how he is. What he has suggested is really good practice that you should take on board . I know you are hurting from losing your work and frustrated that you can't recover it yet. It has happened to most of us I guess

The easiest method of getting to the desktop is %SystemDrive%\Docume~1\%Username%\Desktop
(why look solely on the Desktop when you can search the entire drive?)

before you do anything Make a note of the files it's location, it's creation/update date/time, what created etc.
Sorry for the hard advice I gave earlier - but nearly everyone has to learn the hard way!
