I have an OPW document that was created back in January 2007. On trying to open it today, I get the error message: "Document contents have changed since being saved".
Can anyone suggest what may have gone wrong, and if/how the file might be recovered?
I believe you can turn off the check on file contents when loading from OP general choices* - if you're lucky whatever has changed may not be serious. I'd try this first. 

(* Check documents after loading)
Brilliant, that does it. Thank you very much ... you've just saved me at least a day's work! Interestingly, opening the problem file with <Check documents after loading> switched off, then re-saving it with a different file name, seems to have created a file that is OK. Time will tell.
