[mso] Corrupted Word Doc?

I've recently switched to OfficePro 2003 with a move to a new 
computer and XP Pro.
I created some documents. All look the same as Word documents from 
within Word (and Properties identifies them as Word docs). However, 
#1 is available as an attachment for email and #2 is not. I took 
the text from #2 and created doc #3. #3 also isn't available to 
attach to an email. When I first tried to send this file in an 
Messenger conversation, the error read: error re: filename and 
unreadable characters.

I successfully emailed this doc #2 to myself directly from the 
document.

Does this sound like a corrupted document? If so, will just copying 
the text to a new doc also corrupt it? Any way to retain that info 
(text) without starting from scratch if the text itself is also 
causing a problem?

I ran detect and repair and it "configured" Office 2003. Does that 
mean it ran the utility, or do I need to do it again?

Thanks for any thoughts.
