This file has never seen MSO, It has only been edited in L-O. I tried opening it in Wordpad as part of diagnosis after L-O failed to read it. > So, i guess the question is have you really tried opening the file on > another Windows box. Until it started failing, this file lived on my Linux box and was edited only with L-O. I have tested opening it with Wordpad since the only Windows machine handy has that. It has never been touched by MSO. Next step is to try Abiword on the Linux machine. If that does not work & nobody has a better idea, I'll install MSO on the Windows box. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
