Ok...there may be a chance there is a backup of your code... Look in the directory that has unit1.dcu. If there is a file named unit1.pa~ then you have the source code. rename this file to Unit1.pas and you might get back your data. BTW - ALWAYS SAVE BEFORE EACH COMPILE!!! Get into the habit of pressing Alt+F,V,F9 to run your programs. This little sequence will save everything, compile and then run your project.
