Yesterday I was worked in MS Excel 2007 during two hours. I saved my changes to the document. But today at opening the file I haven't found yesterday data. Any suggestions, pats!
 
Hi ,

I doubt that anything can be done.

If you have not saved the file to disk once more , you can see its properties in Windows Explorer , to see if the File Modified Date and Time match the date and time when you saved it earlier. If they match , and you are still not able to see any changes within the workbook , then it is a real mystery. Probably your Excel itself is corrupted , and the save never happened.

Hi, delaneytucker!

First of all, welcome to Chandoo forums!
Checked this yet?
http://chandoo.org/forum/forums/new-users-please-start-here.14/

About your question, I assume you've yet tried looking in this 4 places:
a) in MyDocuments folder if the original location was different
b) in the same folder of any other removable drives if the original location drive was removable too; maybe it changed its letter
c) in your temp folder (usually here starting with Win7 "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp", but I don't remember... just google it for your OS version)
d) in Excel auto save folder (usually "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Excel\")

a) and d) folders are specified in Excel at Files, Options, Save.

One more thing, did you enter both days with the same Windows user?

And that's all I can think about. Hope it helps.

Regards!
