Downloaded Firefox 2wks ago. Just now working with a large Excel spreadsheet when something happened losing all 6 sheets of data. My file location now shows sheet data as Firefox Document. Now I can't retrieve this file of data; it was financial data! What happened for Firefox to intervene?

Was that Excel file downloaded thru Firefox?

No, Sir. I was strictly working within a newly created Excel file. Actually, Internet Explorer is current browser. Thank you for interest and any suggestion.

Re-thinking thru this, it is probable I downloaded the base data thru FIREFOX. I was working with the project on an Excel spread sheet when I lost the data. The sheets still exist but the data is missing. Very strange.
