Our company has a file, which we share internally to update any changes that
is being made to an on-going project. The updates are made hourly or more
often and we started to see error messages that read "too many different cell
formats".

Then this morning, I got a new message that read..."Errors were detected in
file '\\Server\poi\PROJECT\04C20(03R12) Pumyang BR\04C20 Master.xls' The
following is a list of repairs: Damage to the file was so extensive that
repairs were not possible. Excel attempted to recover your formulas and
values, but some data may have been lost or corrupted."

I am able to open the excel file, except, all of the formats are deleted.
The formats that we had on the file is crucial and we need to recover this.
Please let me know if there is a way to recover this. Thank you.
