Subject: Deleted file ?

To any CPM'r who may know the answer or at least have a theory:

A .MAC file on a 5.25" floppy was inadvertently deleted and needed to be
restored.  No writes to the disk were made after the deletion.  I used
RECOVER.COM to recover the file.  RECOVER.COM stated that the file was
recovered, but when back at the A>, I did a DIR and the file was not
listed.  STAT or PIP could not find it either.

I used DU-V87 to examine the directory entry.  The first byte was in
fact 00 and none of the high bits of the file name or ext were set.

A real puzzel.  Any answers or ideas?
