Hello all,
My 9 year old daughter started writing a novel and for some reason the file has stopped working. Ordinarily I would have made an attempt and after a while let her know that its gone. But this was her first attempt at writing a long novel, she had written around 5-8 pages with many chapters and lots of detail. It is a book about a lost dog called Crackles.
I'm really needing some help to recover some of it if possible.
I have tried to follow the instructions given by Dr Google including looking for backup, renaming zip files but nothing has worked.
When opened in OpenOffice4 firth thing that shows up is:
- ASCII Filter Options
It doesnt matter what is selected it then says
- Document in use, locked for editing by: Unknown user, open document in read-only or open a copy of the document for editing.
Once again it doesnt matter what is done, the document only opens up with square shapes.
Transferring the .odt file to another program just says it is corrupt.
I have attached the file and hope a kind angel out there can help us out.
Thank you all for your time.
