I have a document I need to recover.

About 484k in size.....very important.

When I open the document I get the error box---"A table in this
document has become corrupted. To recover the contents fo the table
select the table & choose covert table to text from table menu"

When I click on "OK" in the error box--the document fully opens and
then the "Report to Microsoft..." box appears and after I click "don't
send" or "send" ---MS Word shuts down.

How can I open this document? The tables aren't important...I need the
text.
 
Hi Robin,


[...]
How can I open this document? The tables aren't important...I need the
text.
Click to expand...

Make a copy of the file and open it in Word using the option in the
dropdown menu (File > Open )
'Recover text from any file *.*'

If this does not work then go to Start > Run and type
'winword.exe /a'
(Without the quotation marks and noting the space between the e and
the forward slash)
And then try to open the document.

Hope this helps
