File recovery

Can someone assist me with a method for recovering a Visio file. While
making changes to an existing drawing, the computer went into the "blue
screen of death" and auto shut-down/restart mode. I was successful in
pulling up Vision, however-- when I attempted to open the file, the response
advised that the file was "not" a Visio file. When viewing the documents
file-- it still shows it "is" a Vision file.

I have found nothing addressing this issue on Microsoft's site. I am
currently using Visio 2000 Professional.

Thanx,

The operating system just goes by file extension. It is possible that the
file got corrupted and can no longer be opened in Visio.
