Odd text appearing in old documents - Word 2000
I am find that when I open old documents they ALL have odd text (something
like tracking information) appended at the bottom - text that was not there when saved. For example, the following from a document the contents of which originally read "My IP address: 68 ....(rest of address)" now has the following appended. Any idea what is going on? Normal Normal Default Paragraph Font Default Paragraph Font Ted"C:\Lester Documents\IP address.docÿ䀁老 Unknownÿ! Times New Roman Times New Roman Symbol Symbol My IP address: 68 My IP address: 68 My IP address: 68 Normal Microsoft Word 9.0 My IP address: 68 Root Entry 1Table 1Table WordDocument WordDocument SummaryInformation SummaryInformation DocumentSummaryInformation DocumentSummaryInformation CompObj CompObj ObjectPool ObjectPool Microsoft Word Document MSWordDoc Word.Document.8 |

Odd text appearing in old documents - Word 2000
In Word, click on File | Open. If "Files of Type" is set to "Recover
text from any file", then change it to "Word documents", "All Word documents", or "All files". Select a file and click on Open.
