You may very well be in luck.
Right click on the folder that the file was in and opt for "previous
version"
As long as you have left Vista system restore enabled...you should see the
previous versions of that folder...
so your original data should still be there and restorable.
Post back with results. Because if your data was not there...you'll need to
turn your machine off and use data recovery software
