You can click "Email Blog Author" for this post, which will send me an email and we'll discuss possibly sending the file. Once I have the document, I can try fixing it.

Please help! Last night I had a file corrupt on a huge project due in 48 hours - no math equations but a ton of text boxes. I tried running a fix but it said my error was not a math error and couldn't be fixed. My file is probably too big to email (around 20MB). Can you help me?

I have a very urgent problem of the kind described above, but in Windows XP and Office 2007, and the Microsoft Fix it solution does not work for me as the executable would not run. Can you help? Where can I send you the file?
