It sounds like he never saved the file, and that he was also working from some cloud service (doubt that they would let him run rescue software on their servers).
Anyway, there is a slim chance that the file was auto-saved to the cloud (or locally), so it might not hurt to look at the Excel settings and/or contact the cloud provider to find out.
"Save early and save often," and ALWAYS save a copy to local drives -- never completely rely on the cloud.
By the way, if it was saved locally and the drive got corrupted, any live CD with photorec and testdisk should quickly recover the lost files or drive.
