victor,
I had the same problem one time. Some models I had written on LOTUS were deleted by accident by another person I shared the computer with. A tech recalled the files. There had been some file damage, but it was better then starting from scratch. The tech advised me of the following.

Once you write over a program, you can't recover it. Once a disk is formated, the data is gone. Also there are some security programs called shredders that also prevent deleted data from being recalled.

The files he recovered had been partly written over after they were deleted. This was also on the old DOS OS.

I'm sure rudedog will be much more informative on this problem.
