By the way, I used the "File/Open/Retrieve text from any document" solution.

Hi ?B?QmlsbCBMdWNrZXk=?=,
The file opens, but as soon as it does so, freezes. I am using Word in the
Office XP suite.
That's not good sigh.
How about using Insert/File to bring it into another document? Does that also
freeze?
If it does, then the only thing you'll be able to do is to recover the text. In
File/Open, there's a file type named "Recover text from any document" you can
use to pull out the text.
I finished creating a Word document and was in the process of formating a
(400k) graphic when the doc froze. I had saved it just after adding the
graphic. Any tips on how to retreive my doc?
You can't open the file you saved?
Which version of Word?
