Thanks for making a stab at this Tom.

Here is the file.  Was saved as a common text file originally with 
Kwrite so it had no file extension.
Subsequently I got more complex with it and started edit it in 
LibreOffice.  So I have to assume it saved as an .odt file, but the 
extension was never shown.

Hi :)
If it's saved in odt or docX then you could try opening the file with 
an archive
manager.  I might be able to have a look in Ubuntu using LibreOffice 
3.3.2 if
you send me the attachment off-list.
Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] help recovering?

I do not know if this will help, but viewers can be more forgiving than
editors.

Try

http://www.officeviewers.com/

or

http://visioo-writer.tuxfamily.org/EN/index_3.html

if it does - you will have to copy & paste back into LO again

you might have to google a few more until you find one that works.

regards

Hoping for some good news here.
Am using the openSuSE branded version of LibreOffice 3.3.3 OOO330m19
(Build:301) tag libreoffice-3.3.3.1 on openSuSE 11.3 and KDE 4.4.4-1.5.

Was editing a document that is pretty important (to me at least) and 
during
the process had tried to add a footnote.
I was editing the text in the footnote and almost immediately there 
was some
flashing of the screen and LibreOffice crashed, locking up the 
entire PC.
No mouse control, no keyboard control, nothing.
So I had to "reset" the PC.
Now the document is fubar.  When I try to open it, LibreOffice 
attempts to
recover but fails.
Then it tries to repair the file but opens only a blank page.
I've tried to open it without an extension and get a list of a 
variety of
application types to attempt any modicum of recovery, but no matter 
what I
try to open it with it either fails, or opens in a file of unreadable
gibberish.
I'd be THRILLED if someone would be able to actually recover this 
document
for me.
Nothing secret in it, I'd be happy to email it to anyone who'd like 
to give
it a try.  Even just to get back the text out of it  so that I could 
rebuild
would be fabulous.

Any chance at all to recover?
