Recovery of Data

Greetings All.
Not feeling too good at the moment.

I have just inadvertantly erased all data from a hard drive using Partition
Magic 5.  I deleted both ntfs drives and APPLIED the changes.  Only to find
out 5 minutes later that the drive I thought was the one I brought home from
the office was actually my data.

Needless to say, it's a couple of months out of date since my last backup.
I already feel like a right twat, so please don't flame me.

If anyone has ANY idea as to how this data might be recoverable (I'm kind of
hoping partition magic only deletes the partition tables, and that these
might be able to be rebuilt.)  please contact me.

I don't frequent these groups too often, so any ideas would be MUCH
appreciated via email.

Thanks

Drew
