all the other documents on the disc open except for one. when i try to
open it it says to check document extension but i have opened it in the
past many times without problems. Its got the only copy of my cv on it
,so any help would be gratefully received!! I have tried open and restore
in case it was damaged but had no joy.
In order to open a Word document, there must be enough free space on the
disk to hold a copy of the document. This is often not the case when
working on a floppy. Generally speaking, the Word gurus recommend
that you never open any document directly from a floppy, but always copy
it to the hard drive first. Floppies are good for backup, but not for
ongoing operations -- and if these are truly important documents, always
make at least two backups. Floppies do go bad.
