Overwriting of BCM Database when creating a new one??

[Andy]

I spent about a week creating a database of business contacts with BCM. Then
I wanted to create a new database for "job applicants", ie a new category of
business contacts. Didn't know what else to do, so I did "create database"
with a new name. I hadn't backed up the original database.

Did I overwrite the original database with the empty new one? I cannot find
the data in the original one, it still shows it to me to connect to and to
select, but it is always empty.

Can I kiss the data goodbye or is there some place where I can find back the
old data.

Thanks, Andyy
