I was working on a Word file yesterday and was almost done. I selected
the endnotes section to format them all the same (font size and none under
the indentation). When I tried to save it, The file seemingly shorted out,
and Word then froze. The restored version that I was able to open appeared
with three strange things:

1. The embedded PowerPoint slides show a field that contains text such
as:
EMBED PowerPoint.Slide.8. When I right click and select object, I get the
message "This object is corrupt or is no longer available."

2. The page numbers appear with a box PAGE another box the page number
and
another box; BOX PAGE BOX 23 BOX.

3. The endnotes all have boxes where they should be in the document and
if
you hover over them, they still are attached to the right end notes, but
you
don't see a number, just what appears to be an empty box. In the end
notes
section, you see the same empty boxes in front of each listed end note,
where
the number should be.

I think the PPT objects need to be re-inserted, but what about the end
notes? Any help is greatly appreciated.
