Norman,

Many thanks for your help.

CTRL+P refuses to do anything except the "Not Responding" etc messages. Open 
With, using Wordpad, is okay and opens about half of the document, and the 
rest of the text deteriorates into gobbledegook. Is there any way that I can 
recover the 'rest'?

Thank you again for your time.

Kind regards,

Ben
