If you close a file in Excel and answer no when asked to save it, it means that the file will not be saved. If it is a new file, then it will all be lost. If it is an existing file, then any changes made since it was opened will not be saved, so the file will be as it was when it was last opened.

If you have clicked 'no' by mistake to save changes to and Excel document can you still retrieve this file?

That depends on the specific situation. If the document has been previously saved, you will have the file up to the point it was last saved, but without any of the new changes in it. If it is auto-saving you may have some more. If it is a brand new document that was never saved before, then you will have lost everything. If there was an error in Excel as you were working on it, you might get a recovered document, but if you just said you did not want to save it, as you've indicated in your question, then that won't happen. As a general rule, if you are working on a big document, save it every so often, even before it is finished, so that if you do something like you did by hitting "No" you will have at least got some work back. Make sure the Auto save is on, by going into the Tools menu and then Options and then in the Save tab, you can turn on autosaving. That will help recover a document if there is an error in Excel, so you won't have lost everything.

How do I link an Excel spreadsheet item to a paragraph in a Word document?

You can use a hyperlink to link from a Word document to an Excel document. Select the text you want to act as the link and press Ctrl-K. You can then find the excel workbook you want to link to. You can also copy from an Excel document and paste as a hyperlink, using Paste As Hyperlink in the Word document. This can link to a specific point in the Excel Workbook. You can also do a Paste Link to maintain a connection between the two files, so that when there are changes in the Excel workbook, they will be seen in the Word document.
