i have a couple of issues, so i will address the other on another thread.
i recently had to do a data recovery, among which were many .doc files
(office2000). having them back in my system (xp, 32k), i notice that when i
roll the cursor over the file names, i see the various mb file sizes - and
all that looks 'normal.' HOWEVER when i actually click to open these various
documents, i get an error message regarding the converter mswrd632.
i looked up this error and performed the deletion of the registry key
concerning wordpad6 (i actually exported it to my desktop in case i need it).
i now no longer get the error message, but when the recovered word document
opens, is full of garbled letters, symbols and whatnot. in a word: unusable.
this problem only exists on the recovered documents - not newly created/save
docs. and in case you were curious - these recovered docs, were not
originally infected -and, as i already mentioned, appear to have the correct
mb size.
how do i make these recovered word docs 'normal'? i had the idea that if i
uninstalled my office 200 suite and then reinstalled it - this might do the
trick. but i don't know. Any other suggestions?
