OfficeRecovery.com Makes It Easy to Recover Damaged Word and Excel Files

Concept Data has launched OfficeRecovery.com http://www.officerecovery.com, a website that provides new, effective solutions for restoring damaged Word and Excel files. When valuable Office files become corrupted, Word Recovery version 1.0 and Excel Recovery version 2.1 will recover the maximum amount of lost information with a single click.

Word Recovery installs itself into the File menu of Microsoft Word 2000, 97 or 95. When users find a scrambled Word document, they can click "Recover", select the damaged file, and Word Recovery will make a copy and return the file to good health.

Excel Recovery works in a similar fashion to recover Excel spreadsheets in Excel versions 2000, 97, 95 and 5.0 for Windows, as well as Excel 98 and 5.0 for the Macintosh. Excel Recovery examines the damaged file's data, and can restore the spreadsheet's workbook structure, as well as corrupted text, numbers and formulas, even in multi-sheet files.

While no recovery software can restore data that has been physically destroyed or overwritten, the Excel and Word recovery programs on OfficeRecovery.com employ sophisticated recovery engines that are designed to fix the worst problems with a single click. Currently used by American Express, Pacific Bell, Sony, Disney and other companies large and small, Excel Recovery and Word Recovery demonstrate every day that it is usually less expensive to recover a file than to recreate it.
