I think my doc might be lost, I had saved it and now go back to it and it gives me this error message - by the way the name of the document is "report 12-17-08.p with replaced employees" I'm running office 2007 and windows XP, if anyone has ANY ideas please help! This is a big report due on Monday, and while I do have several backup versions this version includes all the work I did on it today (about 12 hours worth!) here is a yousendit link with the file if you are willing to try! Please help! report 12-17-08.p with replaced employees

I think the xml files of the document are damaged try renaming the file as zip and opening the "document.xml" file. It gives me a crc error if you can open it, make sure all the opening tags have closing tags, as in, for example <name>something</name> <tag1><tag2>dfsdfdddsf</tag2></tag1> (by the way, you have to remove the " in the link) [url=http://yousendit.....]file name[/url]

the link doesnt work. retry to upload it.
you can open xml files with any internet browsing software like moronzilla with wordpad and even with texteditor. copy and paste the content to a fresh and uncorrupted file. office should have a built in xml editor at least my 2003 edition has. look for it somewhere in your ms office folder.

thanks for the help you guys,
choco, I opened up both versions you uploaded and it all came out as nothing but about 1000 pages of this stuff -
