This is a similar issue to some others have posted, but I have not found anyone exactly the same. My laptop crashed, and when I reloaded it a very large odt. document on Libre Office 3 which I had been working on at the time had for some reason made another copy. The first one was only a small section of the document, but on properties the size is massively bigger than you'd expect and which sounds like the size of the full document, and the copy brought up an ASCII Filter Options pop-up when clicked on, which I have tried numerous settings but however I have it, when I click Okay a new pop up appears saying the document is locked for editing by Unknown User. When I click read-only or open copy, a blank document is displayed. I should have made copies of the document as I was working when it got so big, but I didn't realise and it is really important to me so if anyone knows how to retrieve it that would be appreciated.
LibreOffice 3.3 on Ubuntu 11.04
