I accidentally replaced one table with another. What to do?

I was trying to link two tables and I accidentally replaced the info from one
with the other tables info. The information from the first table is gone. How
do I get back the information?

What *exactly* did you do? Your data is probably gone, unless you have
a backup, but it's conceivable you actually did something else that is
just hiding your data from you.

If you just changed a Link to an external table, you're probably ok -
the link is just a pointer, and changing a link won't affect the data.

As noted elsethread, though, if you actually replaced the table you're
either out of luck, or (at best) out a chunk of cash.
