Can someone help me? I am writing a book and saved it last night on my pen
drive and when I opened it this morning all the text had turned into lines of
boxes. I can't figure out how to change it back. I tried all this but it
did NOT work:
If all the text appears garbled or as question marks, then Microsoft Word
may not have accurately detected the encoding standard of text in the file.
As a result, Word may have used the wrong encoding standard.
To have Word use an encoding standard you select:
On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the General tab.
Select the Confirm conversion at Open check box.
Close and then reopen the encoded file.
In the Convert File dialog box, select Encoded Text.
In the File Conversion dialog box, select Other encoding, and then select
the encoding standard you want in the list.
Does anyone know how to fix my text or have I just lost everything I wrote?
