Unspecified Error, word/document.xml, Line:2, Column: 0

Anonymous

Dear document savers,

It appears that due dates for assignments makes Word eat documents.

Like others I have a corrupted .docx document. I have tried every trick in the book I can find and am now resorting to the next level of knowledgeable help.

The document crashed whilst working on a formula around the 3rd last page from memory (page 12 I believe). After waiting etc. I closed and reopened the document and found then that it would go crazy when I got to the area I was last working in, and wouldn't scroll or display content properly. When I tried again to close and open it wouldn't open it. Nothing so far has worked.

It now gives the message:

"The file Assign 3 Answers.docx cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents."

"Details"

"Unspecified Error"

"Location: Part: /word/document.xml, line: 2, column: 0"

I have uploaded the file here

https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B8CyUQXlwkYeUXdmVl9acWZTUEU

I can open in Googledocs but without drawings or equations. It opens in viewer.zoho.com but still cannot open a saved copy in Word 2010

I would greatly appreciate if anyone had any fixes for me.

Sincerely,

Rowan

The Google Docs copy was a DOC rather than a DOCX, but I downloaded it and had a look. I snipped out the BH from the second formula following "for Triangle CBH" on page 19. That will need replacing and close proofreading that area is highly recommended.

There is some strange pagination and I don't know exactly why that is nor even if the pagination is intentional. The actual corruption looked like it was due to many reformatting changes, resulting in empty formatting tags.

I've uploaded a repaired copy of the DOCX to my SkyDrive here for you to download . Be sure to get service packs for Office 2007 or 2010 installed whenever possible before further editing is performed.

There is probably something wrong with one of your equations which Jeeped can fix. As a temporary fix though if you need the file in a hurry, I filtered it through Xoho Writer. It now opens in Word but Xoho may rearranged some things, so if you use it, go through the document carefully to make sure it is as you wrote it. The free program Word Corrupt Document Checker, doesn't work this time:

OK, I got it to open with a minimum of editing. You can view and download the file here:

There is something wrong with equation 36 that produce the XML below in the word\document.xml subfile of the DOCX. I removed the part which begins and ends with the accent tags (m:acc></m:acc>) and the file opens. The accent seems to have been the default "^" accent. In a copy of your recovered file, if it is possible, redo the equations as 2 equations without the semicolon or on 2 lines, see if that fixes it. Also try to avoid the "^" accent as maybe that's causing the problem:
