Corrupt Files
We are creating a Guide based on dozens of underlying specification and
system documents. Problem is several of the documents are returning the following message: "This document may be corrupt. To preserve the contents: Choose Select All from the Edit menu, then choose copy from the Edit menu. Create a new document, then choose Paste from the Edit menu." Unfortunately, this alternative is not working no matter what we try. I suspect Styles may be playing a part in the corrupt message and have tried manipulation via the Organizer, however, that, too is not working. Can anyone tell me what we can do to preserve the contents of these documents. Some are so voluminous we simply don't have time to recreate them. Help! |

Hi ?B?TXMgRGl2YQ==?=,
Which version of Word is involved here? Or, better, what's the most recent version you have available? And how many versions are being used to edit these documents? There appears to be an important point missing in the instructions you're seeing: you should NOT include the last paragraph mark in what you're copying. If you are dealing with structural problems in the documents, this will just carry them along... We are creating a Guide based on dozens of underlying specification and system documents.
