Not able to open 512MB word document
Most likely it is corrupt; see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm. But if Open and Repair
doesn't help, then your only recourse may be Recover Text from Any File.

hi all..!
now i m able to open that same word document properly. lket me explain the
issue once again
i agree with suzanne that the word document can not contain more than 32mb
of text as per kb211489. but before inserting JPEG images in word document
it
was showing 100+MB and after inserting JPEG images it was showing 512mb
i tried to open that document in word. but it it was giving me an message
that word is converting document filename and after conversion, it was
giving error message that i ve to perform open and repair. so, i tried
that
also but didnt work
then i tried to open it with wordpad, but on the statusbar of the wordpad,
it was showing 1% complete..... 7% complete and again it was going in loop
saying 1% complete, so, i closed that also
then i tried to open the same document in notepad. it was saying that the
document is too big to open in notepad.
finnaly, i tried again in wordpad thinking that wordpad is not giving any
error message atleast. so, i tried to open it in wordpad. same issue
occured.
it was going in loop. i left wordpad opened and after almost 15min,
document
opened and opened properly with all the text and images
Imp: previously it was showing 512MB, but now it shows only 150KB
So, do you want to say that the document is corrupt..? i think it could
be..!
Please reply
Thanks for previous suggestions..!
Regards,

If the document was created in Word, then the maximum size for the text
part
is 32 MB. The images don't count against the 32 MB limit. But you did
specify that the text was 512 MB. I'm not sure how you got a document
that
big if you created it in Word. Are you sure it isn't 512 KB?

there are about 10 JPEG images in that word document
So, are you saying that the document is corrupt, because i ve change
the
document type from rtf to doc, to txt also, but it is showing as the
same
size i.e. 512MB
