xChicken04x Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I have been sent a very important document that needs replying to by Monday, but my computer won't let me open it. Whenever I click 'open' it tells me 'Works was unable to open the project you selected. The file may be corrupted." Any help? I can't really contact the person who sent it until Monday and it will be too late by then. Any help please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xChicken04x Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 Hi Fred, thanks, but I don't think I can send it to anyone else, it's quite confidential. Any other ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
