Hi @Crespo, Kaitlyn ,
Did you mean you want to recovery the unsaved file in Excel 2007?
First, please make sure you have enable the option AutoRecover:

1. Click Excel's "Office" button and then click "Excel Options."
2. Click "Save" to view the Excel Options window that lets you set program options.
3. Place a check mark in the "Save AutoRecovery Information Every" check box. Type a value, such as "10," in the Minutes text box; this value determines how often Excel saves your data.

If the option is enabled, you can try this method to check if you can find the unsaved file:

1. Launch Excel after a crash. The program displays the Document Recovery pane containing up to three versions of a document that Excel recovered.
2. Click the "Down" arrow next to a file that you want to recover to open a menu containing options.
3. Click "Open" to view the document. If you'd rather save it instead, click "Save As," type a filename in the "Save As" text box, and click "Save." Delete a file you don't need by clicking “Delete.”

Try this method and check if this will help you.
