Lost Document
Dan Dilly 6/15/2007 8:22:01 AM
Spent over 3hours typing work for University, using a preformed document
layout provided by the tutors. My laptop crashed and I lost the lot. However
Auto Recover recovered the document (Word 2003) but I cannot read it because
it is 95% coever with Question Marks (?). Can any one help on how to sort it
out please?

Almost certainly this document is badly corrupted, but to confirm it, open
Word, use File, Open, select the document and then use Open and Repair
(click the little arrow attached to the OPEN button).
