[mso] Problems Opening a Word Document

Dear Listmembers,
 
I was wondering if you could help. I have been having problems opening a word 
file that I had been working on. I had saved the file to my jumpdrive, and then 
to my Mac hardrive, closed them, then unplugged the jumpdrive, but when I went 
to open up the file I had been working on yesterday it would not open (from my 
jumpdrive or my hardive). 
 
When I try to open the file on my hardrive it says "convert file from" and then 
has a list of options. Needless to say I've tried all the options, and none of 
them seem to be working.
 
The strange thing is the file size says 4kb on the jumpdrive, but 88kb on the 
hardrive (the latter sounds more accurate because it's around a 25/26 page 
document). I'm really worried because this is a very important document and 
concerned that some of the information has gone missing.
 
I tried opening up the file in wordperfect but that doesn't work either. I've 
also tried opening it buy inserting the text into a new blank document, but to 
no avail...
 
I'm wondering if something happened when it was saving the file on/bewteen the 
jumpdrive and the hardrive?
 
Any suggestions would be really appreciated.
 
 
Thanks loads, Susan.
