Recovered text in Word 2007
Using Word 2007 I've noticed that the text is scrambled gibberish when
opening as Recovered Text. Is this a new 'feature' Microsoft has put out? Any help is appreciated. |

Recovered text in Word 2007
Recovery is a means whereby a corrupt document can be viewed, with the
possibility of recovering some of the text it contained. If that corruption has caused the document to contain gibberish, that is what you will see. More important questions would be why the document is corrupt and why you need to open it with the recovery option? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Sue wrote: Using Word 2007 I've noticed that the text is scrambled gibberish when opening as Recovered Text.

Recovered text in Word 2007
Thank you for replying.
I created both documents from a blank document in Word 2007. No copy/paste, nothing fancy. Just plain text, and a few Numbered heading styles in one of those two. The reason I went into Recoverd Text is because I've been tasked with learning about different ways of viewing metadata. Documents don't open in gibberish on my 2003 machine. thanks Sue "Graham Mayor" wrote: Recovery is a means whereby a corrupt document can be viewed, with the possibility of recovering some of the text it contained.

You can view metadata in Word 2003 with the script editor ALT+SHIFT+F11
I don't know anything about Word 2007, other than the file formats are not the same. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Sue wrote: Thank you for replying.

Recovered text in Word 2007
Hi Graham,
The hooks to the MS Script Editor have been removed from Office 2007. Using a Web Page preview (although the command has to now be added to the Quick Access Toolbar) and using View=Source in the browser should still work though  ============= "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...

I can't say that I am looking forward to installing Office 2007. It seems
like a lot of answers to questions I haven't asked  -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Bob Buckland ?:-) wrote: Hi Graham, The hooks to the MS Script Editor have been removed from Office 2007.
