Hey guys !
When I attempt to open a word document, I get a error message :
Word failed reading from this file. Please restore the network connection or replace floppy disk and retry.
I'm left with 2 options - retry and cancel.
I see my text in teh background, however I can't access it because the popup box is in the way.
I'm running it off a local hard drive.
Does anyone know how I can repair this ? It's a very important document.
Thanks.

Try to open the file using LibreOffice. LibreOffice is very tolerant to errors, it's free software.
