MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / February 2004Save our office files
Respected Sirs, On 23.02.2004 we came to know that all our office files have become corrupted. We use one folder name 'msoffice' in Novell Server. There are several sub-folders as per different users. Users save all their office files in those folders. 95% of the existing files have become corrupted at a time. We have latest updated Symantec Antivirus Coporate Edition. We have regular scheduled scan at server level and PC level. We are not getting anything in the properties of any file. Any kind of solution in this regard will be highly appreciated. Regards, [B. Pandey] Are these files only Word files? In what way are they corrupted?  SignaturePlease post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis. Hope this helps Doug Robbins - Word MVP > Respected Sirs, > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > [B. Pandey] I would like to inform you that what type of corruption I have detected therein. Both Word and Excel files have been corrupted. Normally if we select an file[icon] and look at the properties, [at windows98] we find five tabs ie, General, Summary, Statistics, Contents, Custom, Netware version. Netware version we find since we are using Novell. But from the corrupted files we are getting only two tabs ie, General and Netware version. Whenever we are opening Word files, we look square type box characters all around in the text area. Whenever we are opening Excel files, we are getting an error message like hereunder and thereafter a blank worksheet. "This file is not in a recognizable format." We have gone through the File Recovery of Office 2003 as per guideline of Microsoft 'Recover the text from a damaged document' and Repairing corrupted files in Excel' but failed to get any solution. Any kind help in this regard will be highly appreciated. Regards, [B. Pandey] | Are these files only Word files? In what way are they corrupted? | [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] | > | > [B.
