Hi people

One of my friend has a macbook and she has a .xls file, within which there was lots of data / some graphs.

But now when she opens the .xls file, there is no data / graph inside. Looks like its either been lost or deleted or its just not there..

Can someone please tell me what to do, ASAP? she is in the middle of preparing a report and now she can't find the graph / data...

I tried looking for some recovery options, but I have no idea about this Mac OS... never used one before.

Thanks a lot in advance for any help!

What is the size of the file? Could you upload the file somewhere so that some of us can have a look at it?
