the .htaccess and the SQL database of your wordpress site are two totally different things, what the fuck are you talking about? And what the fuck did you fuck up? Im not great at either, but will help if I can.
You dont keep a copy of your htaccess saved on your local machine?

Every wordpress account has this plugin that backups your blog. I have that backup in my computer, but my friend doesn't know how to restore it.
SO the the database backup? Like I said im not real great with this kind of shit, but all you should have to do is import the backup file into your sql database for the site.
im still guessing at whats he is talking about! If he has somehow lost the sql database, through his own doing or through some other event I really cant see how repairing the .htaccess file is going to help
I just talked to my host and told me they had a backup of my site. I'm waiting to see if they can bring my site back up. I had to pay $15 for the backup.
Get another host. They shouldn't be charging you for a restore, it doesn't take that much if they're using cPanel or any of the other control panels. That's just fucking wrong.
Oh and here's the .htaccess code for Wordpress.
Code:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
I've always wondered what would happen if you had an emergency like this at the exact time Google was trying to update your site for PR... would all your links dissappear? Or what if your host is down when google goes to update your PR (the .1% of 99.9% uptime)?
Goodluck restoring
