Re: Help! Corrupted Word file(?)

[kcbillb2 <kcbillb2 -at- kc -dot- rr -dot- com>]

Hi, aroxanne,

Could be any of your suggestions, but remember rule #1 when working with 
Word:

It's not a question of if, but when and how much a Word file will be 
corrupt.


If you could give us a bit more information about what the problem is, 
operating system, Word version (I know, it's Word 2003), and any more 
details about the problem you're experiencing, that would be helpfull...
