How to retrieve mistakenly deleted data from a table in Word

"Automatically create backup copy enabled" (Tools | Options | Save), display "All Files" and look for "Backup of filename.wbk," which will be the previously saved version, which should include the deleted text, which you can copy/paste back in. -- Suzanne S.
