Not able to open 512MB word document
there are about 10 JPEG images in that word document
So, are you saying that the document is corrupt, because i ve change the document type from rtf to doc, to txt also, but it is showing as the same size i.e. 512MB -- Anup "Suzanne S.

Not able to open 512MB word document
If the document was created in Word, then the maximum size for the text part
is 32 MB. The images don't count against the 32 MB limit. But you did specify that the text was 512 MB. I'm not sure how you got a document that big if you created it in Word. Are you sure it isn't 512 KB? -- Suzanne S.

Not able to open 512MB word document
Most likely it is corrupt; see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm. But if Open and Repair doesn't help, then your only recourse may be Recover Text from Any File. -- Suzanne S.

Not able to open 512MB word document
I had the same problem and managed to open a corrupted file using Wordpad.
Same exact issue - a word file with scanned in jpegs mushroomed to 554 mgs and couldn't be repaired or opened with anything - including about 10 file repair software packages and WORd was useless. Thanks for giving me the only solution that has worked to get my text. Some bad WORD bug here.....

Not able to open 512MB word document
When you say you've changed the type from rtf to doc and to txt, do you mean
you've changed the file extension, or that you've opened the document and used 'Save As' to save as a different format? If you changed the file extension, what was it to start with?
