A user in our business has reported that every word doc he has gives the same error when he tries to open, some docs are over 4 years old, some are only a week old.
The error happens wether he double clicks file, open file from within word - even with "open and repair" option.

error:
"The file XXXX cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents. Details - Microsoft office cannot open this file because some parts are missing or invalid"

click ok then:
"Word found unreadable content in XXXX. Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you trust the source of this document, click Yes."

Hi OsborneHar,

This forum is discussing about Word developing like Word automation, Word Customization, and your issue seems to be more related with Word product. I will move this thread to the more related forum.

Thanks for your understanding.
