All my docs are viewing as text only after exporting CSV file
I was exporting a Word document to Excel as a CSV file, and following that
all my Word documents are now showing only as text files. How do I fix this problem? And it does the same thing even if I put in a CD and open it from there. |

Hi ?B?YWxlZWhlcnNlbGY=?=,
I was exporting a Word document to Excel as a CSV file, and following that all my Word documents are now showing only as text files. How do I fix this problem? And it does the same thing even if I put in a CD and open it from there. HOW were you doing this "exporting", more exactly? And with which version of Office (so that we can tell you the best way to try to fix it).

All my docs are viewing as text only after exporting CSV file
I was in excel and went through the export/import wizard. It asked me to put
my office disc in to install something and it exported it okay, but now all my documents view with just the text and any graphics in code. Here is an example: ...\..\..\Application Data\Microsoft\Media Catalog\Downloaded Clips\cl0\ph01207j.jpg ...\..\..\Application Data\Microsoft\Media Catalog\Downloaded Clips\cl0\ph01207j.jpg Photoshop 3.0 'File written by Adobe Photoshop¨ 4.0 dEU6te uãóF¤´ÄÔäô¥µÅÕåõVfv*¦ ÆÖæö'7GWgw pcX×7kDh _+("õt:VEÖQ§ d·yg `u{pì{pÅnÉ:Y}² qœ,'SZXñAgO« s k |\ãôO¥T;w*o.

A significant "gotcha" in Word 97 and 2000. They fixed it in Word 2002 by
making Word revert to your previous setting after using Recover Text. -- Suzanne S.
