    Recovering corrupt word documents

    Please explain...?

    And I know this thread is abit of a spam magnet..for that I apologise.
    Unfortunately I cannot attach one of the files due to they need to remain confidential.

    I have tried the following:

    - Several "text" recovery programs.
    - I have tried using word to repair and open the documents
    - I have tried opening the documents in several other text browsers - ie. Notepad, wordpad etc
    - I have tried using winzip, winrar and 7zip to retreive text
    - I have tried changing options in word to attempt to open the document as a draft.
    - I have tried to use word to "insert text" from the document

    All these things havent worked for me yet.. *Cry :cry:

    Recovering corrupt word documents

    to be honest, if they're corrupt they're likely completely screwed. someone may know of a recovery method, but you'd best assume they're goners now and plan for that.

    Corrupt Word Document Overnight?

    try saving a copy of one of the corrupt files to RTF, then open the document in wordpad and see what you have then, it sometimes works.
