From: SusanB on 22 Nov 2008 17:39 Word attempted to open a corrupt file. I clicked cancel. Now every time I open word (or Outlook), Word tries to recover the file and will only open in the SAFE mode. How can I get it to stop looking for that file and open normally? To make matters worse, i cannot remember the file it was trying to open in the first place. PS - I've already tried re-installing Office XP. Thanks!
