I am working on my dissertation and recently purchased Word 2010. Now, when I try to open my paper I get an error message that "Word found unreadable content in....." When I select yes, to recover that contents I then get another error message that says "we are sorry. We can't open ......because we found a problem with its contents." The details then state: "Operation aborted: max-element-depth constraint violated."
I have tried doing the open and repair and then saving but nothing works...help please?

Excuse me . . .
Could you by chance repair this file for me?
I need it as soon as possible please.
Thank you in advance.
I've opened the repaired DOCX in both Word 2007 and Word 2010 although it appears to have some trouble displaying properly in the Word Web App. I've saved it as a Word 2000-2003 DOC with no loss of content and I'm providing a public DropBox link below.

And here is is on SkyDrive.

Your inability to open the DOCX I provided earlier may have something to do with SP2. If you have not installed SP2 into your Office 2010 as yet, I would recommend that you do so promptly.
Okay...feeling really dumb here...I originally put that I am using Word 2010 when in fact it is Word 2013. Sorry! Maybe that will change the fix that I need?
