I need to restore an Access table that had a portion of it
deleted 2 weeks ago. Any ideas?

Thanks!
 
Have you got any back-up around that time?

If the database has been in used for the last 2 weeks, the chance is that
the space that was occupied by the deleted Records are written over.

You're probably out of luck. As Van says, any addition of data or
editing of existing data in the intervening two weeks has probably
overwritten the deleted data.

The only place I can suggest which *might* help is Peter Miller's
excellent database recovery service at http://www.pksolutions.com -
but this may be beyond even his wizardry.
 
I actually haven't used my computer(home computer)much in
the last couple of weeks. Is there anyway I can retrieve
it from my hard drive?

Your best bet would be to *MAKE A BACKUP IMMEDIATELY*; and send the
database as it is to Peter Miller at http://www.pksolutions.com. It's
not free but if anything can be recovered, he'll do it.
