Kenneth,
I hate to say this but probably you were working with w2K and 'Write cache enabled' most likely you lost the content.
First to see if it's worth to recover current .sc* check them with :
do home()+'tools\hexedit\hexedit' with 'myForm.scx' && and .sct
If they show all 00 then nothing to recover from them. You might try to find files in temp folder with your newly added code in them (if found open with notepad and recover code).
Else either you could recover from 'Not a table' fixing the .scx header (most likely reccount info in bytes offset 4-7 is wrong) or open the .sct with notepad to cut&paste code.
PS: If W2K+IDE drive always work 'Write cache enabled' UNchecked for drives (better with a backup).
