I have a good program at home that I unformatted my drive after *accidentally* formatting it 4 times 
It managed to recover everything. Best to ensure nothing more gets written to the drive so you don't lose anything.
Drop me a mail and I'll sort you out a bit later if it helps ?

i used to have a dos program that would let you recover single files from a formatted hard disc, but you could only do one at a time and it had to fit on a floppy.
was a bit sh*te but OK if if you only needed a file or 2...

Thanks a million.
The guy in pc support has been sounding progressively more worried as I point out the slightly devestating affect of their actions !

If not, time to send the disk off to Ontrack and wait for the wallet busting bill...

So what exactly does a full format do then if it doesnt' erase files and create a clean drive? Confused! I am thinking of it in video tape terms, and if you format a video tape there is no hope in hell of getting your prog back!

Ontrack are based in the same building as our company so I can confirm you will get a wallet busting bill. When one of our customers hard drives went t!ts up the final bill was over £2000....
I can get you a discount if it comes to that though!
