Ann,

I'm still not quite sure precisely when your overwriting occurred. Did it
occur at the time of the backup, so that the backup itself only contains a
single copy?  If so, you are probably hosed. Can't create what doesn't
exist.
    Or did it occur at the time of your recovery?If so, it may be as simple
as repeating the recovery using a slightly different procedure. If you post
more details, then we can offer more help.
    Gus provides an excellent idea. If you have all the archive records from
the tablespace creation, you may be able to recreate it. Or if you have an
earlier backup (that doesn't have the overwritten file problem) and all the
archive records, you could recover the earlier backup and roll forward.
