Me: "F
ortunately for you all hope is not lost. Normally, when Word 2007 detects a corrupt file, it will automatically try and repair it while it is opening the file. You can also force this behavior by taking the following steps:- In Word 2007, click the Office button and select Open.
- In the Open dialog box, click on the corrupt file that you would like to open and then click the small down arrow next to the Open button. This will bring up the Open menu.
- In the Open menu, select "Open and Repair."
With Word 2003, a similar feature existed. When "Open and Repair" failed to resuscitate a corrupt Word .doc file.
But, don't worry I got tool for repair your ms word 2003 file. You can use "
Repair My Word".
Repair My Word is a data recovery program for Microsoft Word documents. It is designed to recover text from damaged or corrupt Word files (.doc files) that will not open normally. The recovered text can then be saved as an error free Microsoft Word document.This program does NOT work for Office 2007 .docx files.
Some common error messages which can prevent a user opening a Microsoft Word document include:
- "The document name or path is not valid. Try these suggestions. Check the file permissions for the document or drive. Use the File Open dialog box to locate the document."
- "Word cannot open the document."
- "Word cannot open the document: user does not have access privileges."
- When you attempt to open a Microsoft Word 97 document into Microsoft Word version 6.x or 7.x, the document contains garbage characters.
Repair My Word will allow you to obtain access to the contents of corrupt word documents. It will repair Microsoft Word 6.0, Word 95, 97, 2000, XP, and 2003 for Windows.
Repair My Word is simple to use. Just open the corrupt Word file, preview the recoverable text in the preview window and save this text to a new error free Word file.
Finally, one other approach is to convert the .docx file to a .doc file using an online converter, and I have found the online Docx converter to work really well. Convert your .docx files into .doc using
this site.
