corrupted table recovery

[Turck]

Hi, I have a file of lecture notes. After editing and saving last night,
today upon opening the file, I got the following message: "A table in this
document has become corrupted. To recover the contents of the table: Select
the table and choose Convert Table to Text from the Table menu."

I get this additional message:
"This error message may be the result of a corrupt table in the current
document.
You can recover the contents of the document and the table by closing the
document and reopening it using the Open and Repair option of the Open dialog
(File menu). To find the Open and Repair option, select the down arrow next
to the Open button. The Open and Repair option is at the bottom of the menu.
After the file is repaired, the corruption or incorrect formatting of all
tables in the document should be corrected.
If the document still has errors in a table after a repair, you may want to
examine each table to see if any text is too long for any given cell or row,
or an incomplete table was created or imported into the document."

I followed the 2nd suggestion in an attempt to recover. However, attempt
failed. I'm sure I'm out of luck, but thought I'd ask the smart people.

Any ideas?
Bye,
GKT
