You may have gotten it back from the recycle bin, but system restore does not restore documents.

About system restore, sorry about that
nm
I wonder if you can use System Restore
to recover that document. That worked for me once.
Have you tried doing a system restore?
.
You can restore your system, but I'm not sure if that will do it (sm)
Could it be in your recycle bin? If you see anything in there that could be it, right click and restore. If that doesn't help, you can restore your whole system back to a certain date. I have done this before when I got a virus I couldn't delete. Start, Run, msconfig <enter>, launch system restore. You will be given the chance to pick a date to restore back to.
do you have system restore?
If you use/have system restore set up, you can go back to the date prior to this problem, and things should go right back to normal....read about system restore on your system in the HELP (F1) area
System Restore
Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - System Restore.
You can also restore your system...
Go to Start, then All Programs, then Accessories, System Tools, then pick SYSTEM RESTORE.
Pick a date you're positive was before the virus was contracted, and restore to that date.
BTW, poster above about the malwarebytes site is correct...It works, and it's also pretty cool to watch it run and "quarantine" the viruses. My computer had 67 of them at one time, unbeknownst to me.
Good luck!!!
Start menu
Go to control panel, click on "Task Bar & Start Menu", check the box that says show the clock and apply.
All hail System Restore! (sm)
The DSL went out in my complex the other day, and when it was restored, nothing I could do could restore connection on my work computer. The manager brought his laptop over and proved the connection was fine. My tech-savvy daughter and I checked and rechecked everything, then laughed when the Hardware Lord came home and rechecked all the same things we had tried.
Finally she reminded me about System Restore; I restored to the previous day, and all was well.
Don't know about System Restore on Windows XP systems? Go to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Restore and make sure yours is turned on and sufficient memory allocated. In addition to the automatic restore points WinXP schedules, make certain you create a restore point before you change any significant settings on your system or install or uninstall software. Note that it only restores settings, not deleted files or programs.
There are some forms of Spyware which hide out in system restore. The only way to get rid of them is to turn it off and erase all previous restore points.
Thought I'd post this as this feature has saved me a lot of grief on several occasions.
I would try a system restore to before you started...sm
That should clear up any problems you've had since then. You can find it in your control panel, performance and maintenance and then system, where you'll find system restore. Choose a date to before you started work there. Or you can buy the programs out there that fixes problems like this, like Fix-It Ultimate 6. I know they have them at Walmart for $20. Good luck!
My system restore is not working so I cannot do this..nm
nm
If I am right I did not "set up" my system restore...sm
Your system restore as I understand it automatically makes its own restore dates. You can make your own restore dates also. I have not done any set up regarding system restore and have used it several times in the past. Check it out on your pc with any luck you may be able to use it...Good Luck...
do a system restore. see if that helps. nm

I just did a system restore and that seems to have helped. nm

Welcome! System restore is a lifesaver
I have used it many times. I always check for simpler solutions, but if there are none, this does just what it says and at least allows you to rule out certain things.
System restore won't work for this.
The icon on the toolbar is controlled by the normal.dot file and system restore does not affect that file. You can take the icon off the toolbar by holding down on the Alt key and dragging the button down to the document window with your mouse. You can also open the customize dialog box on the tools menu and drag it off that way.
Do you have a system restore option
on your computer where you can set it to how it was working on a past date?
Easy Fix...System Restore
I was able to ditch the XP Antivirus 2009 bug by rebooting, going back into Windows in safe mode, then doing a system restore to a couple of days prior (click Start, Help and Support, type in "system restore" and you'll get the system restore wizard). Pesky bug hit me earlier this week when I decided to work a late-nighter and didn't have the time or stamina for marathon troubleshooting!
I would uninstall SP3 and do a system restore.
I've read that SP3 can be problematic.
Open your start menu--sm
look through the listing of the programs and if there is something there under the name of "creative" you have a soundblaster sound card. A lot of the newer computers now are coming with a "built in" or "on board" audio program and a sound card is not necessarily needed. If that is what you are using, then I do not believe it would be compatible with SoundBlaster.
find System Restore on your computer.....sm
You need to find System Restore on your computer. Go to START, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, then click on System Restore and set it to a date when everything was working just fine and dandy for you (like a couple of days ago or so) and then everything should come up nice....the way it used to be for you. 
system restore or auto recovery does not--sm
restore save documents as they were previous to being saved. Once they are saved, that is it. System restore will not bring it back.
did you try to do a system restore? anytime i find myself sm
in a situation like yours, i always try system restore to an earlier date to fix the screw up i did. no need to uninstall programs that way either. so much easier. i agree with the other poster, sometimes i get so furious with IT that i hang up on them and fix it myself!! if working on the computer is your income, you owe it to yourself to learn how they work so you can fix minor problems or be best friends with an IT or repair person you can call 24/7 without a huge price.
Restore System or lower resolution did it for me sm
I got a new monitor that wouldn't work in Word so I set it to the old, smaller resolution and it works in Word just fine now. On another computer Restore System fixes absolutely everything, saves my life over and over again!
...on installation? Run the upgrade on it from your Start menu. nm

Only if you have a backup of your normal.dot file. System Restore will not

lost files. I worship the god of system restore.
That said, once a week i copy everything I value onto CD and make 2 copies. One goes to my parents house and one I keep on hand. My parents live 30 miles away and I consider that a small price to pay for peace of mind. I had a major computer malfunction once and I was down for almost 3 weeks. It was a nightmare. I have since learned...back up, back up, back up. Good luck with retrieving or finding your lost informaiton.
Windows 2000 is the same. Accessories, system restore. nm

System Restore does not affect documents, only program files.

You might have to do a system restore to the time before she sent file. Vista is still too buggy

System restore does not affect documents, only program files.
You will not lose any documents you've created. Restore does nothing to the normal.dot or other templates.

recommend adware, free, but if you can do a system RESTORE, it is much, much easier than battling it
i used to spend days trying to get crap off my computer. learned to back up to system restore from a few days prior to when i noticed everything happening and works like magic!! so much of an easier solution. but several tech support have told me adware and i run it weekly.
..you up to do this. ExText needs a system or an account to access before you log in

It is astonishingly easy to access a system
Sorry you are going through this. I am facing a major change that could result in loss of income in job site. The economy right now is demanding immediate cut backs from the looks of it. We are collateral damage of it and it is a darn shame. Do present a bid - contact the tech dept at the hospital and have them give you the necessary information to investigate what it would take to get you one their system - usually a VPN, internet access and a wave pedal which is basically a CD you download - and a pedal you plug in with a few things to type to get you where you need to be in the program - it is easy to master. If not this hospital you are with, then check the jobs listed in the two MT websites ***edited by Moderator*** and I just know you will find something soon. There is a lot to chose from but many are applying. Focus on your strenghts and I think we will be able to make a living out of this work for another ten years, albeit without a raise.
If the system lets you access old reports, you'll have

For crunchy snacks - pork rinds.
I ate a lot of eggs (whites), omelets, tuna, chicken, meats in general, hot dogs, cheese and fresh veggies of most sorts and salads.
Sandwiches were made inside of leaves of lettuce and rolled instead of bread, and after induction, low-carb tortillas, and I never missed the bread either.
After induction, you can munch on things like walnuts, pecans, and macademia nuts and all berries.for snacks.
Oh, while on induction, I ate a TON of sugar-free jello with home-made whipped cream whipped with Splenda. That really satisfied my sweet tooth.
I had to go on the Atkins because my cholesterol was high and because I had arthritis, my doc didn't want me to go on Statin drugs as that makes muscle aches/pains a thousand times worse
After the diet, I lost a lot of weight and sure enough, my cholesterol leveled out beautifully. I also felt a thousand times better on this diet and had more energy.
I'm getting ready to go on it again....
Good luck on your diet.
See the top menu..
of Your Internet Explorer.
Help > About Internet Explorer
The left Menu....
The left Menu is actually a javascript for fast loading of pages. Your browser's scripting is disabled.
Go to "Tools -> Internet Options..." from the main menu of Internet Explorer.
Change to the "Security" tab
Select "Custom Level".
Make sure "Enable" is selected under "Active scripting"
Restart the browser.
If above doesn't work, run some Spyware or Anti-virus, because most of the viruses and Trojans stops the javascript in first place.
The menu bar is back. THANK YOU!!!
Not sure why the Alt+V and other suggestions didn't work but maybe it's because I needed to download the service packs after un/reinstalling Word. I also somehow managed to make RTF format the default in Word, but don't know how. In any case, I just thank you all so much for the help. It was such a frustrating thing to deal with and sucked the whole day away. I'm so happy that I can look forward to a productive day today, thanks to everyone here.
I'm always looking to add to our network of ICs, and especially seek out generous, cooperative transcriptionists like you folks here . We have a private board that runs on that kind of spirit and as a result we really have an awesome team. If any of you needs another company to work with, please be sure to email me (and be sure to mention this thread).
Our menu's very similar to yours
Were having Taco Bell tacos, cheetos, and Star Bucks Carmel Machalatas (I think I spelled that right, but it's those ice cold carmel coffee drinks they make. They go great with Tacos.
