the file is corrupt and cannot be opened
Experience is showing me that the most common corruption is the zip file
being broken, in which case there is probably nothing I can do, but if the zip is sound and the xml is causing a problem, I may be able to recover some of it. Send me the file and I will take a look. No promises, though. -- Enjoy, Tony www.WordArticles.com "KK" wrote in message ... I have saved my work on June 1, now i cant open it. I dont know what is the problem.

I don't know what version of Word you're in, but Word 2003 has a function
called "Open and Repair." Open Word (no document, just Word). Then use either the Ctrl-O function or the File-Open menu option. When the Open screen comes up, navigate to your corrupt file and select it. (Just select it -- don't double click it.) Next to the Open button is a tiny down arrow. Select that down arrow and choose Open and Repair. This gives you at least a chance of recovering some of your document. Often you will lose formatting or sometimes chunks of text, depending on what is corrupt, but most of the time you'll get back at least part of your document. Sometimes, I think that success with this method depends on either (a) how you hold your mouth, or (b) whether you're living a good, clean, honest, Christian life. If it works, say it's because of (b). If it doesn't, blame it on (a). Fred "KK" wrote: I have saved my work on June 1, now i cant open it. I dont know what is the problem.
