Hi,
Hoping someone can help me recover my ODS file. I've tried the ZIP conversion method but doesn't seem to have worked for me.
Any help greatly appreciated
Thanks

Re: Corrupt ODS file
I didn't get anywhere with fixing the file - my attempt gave many knock-on errors, which in turn gave other errors. My concern is that there may possibly be content omitted, judging by the size difference between the original file and robleyd's corrected version. I advise waiting for another correction version before deciding that the entire content is present.

Re: Corrupt ODS file
I suspect that may be a factor of the compression software I used (whatever Dolphin uses)?
The original, damaged content.xml was 190.6Kb and the repaired version 188.3Kb which seems not an unreasonable difference, as I removed some tens (so many I lost count) of duplicate attributes like table:content-validation-name="valnn".
But of course a close check is warranted.
Edit: Possibly Ark - I re-created the archive using Ark and got an identically sized file. |
But of course a close check is warranted.

Re: Corrupt ODS file
OK - I didn't consider differing compression utilities.
I was getting many duplicate attributes, as you indicate; in early morning my brain is not fully in gear and breakfast is more important, so I abandoned my repair attempt.
Your figure for the sizes of content.xml pre/post repair looks good for the integrity of the content.
