message "number must be between 1 and 6550 ??? Can't open my doc

[Linda]

When trying to open my document I'm getting the message "number must be
between 1 and 6550"

This is a document I was amending and had saved it but now when trying to
open it I'm keep getting this message so I can't access it. I also can't get
rid of the message unless I close the programme via task manager.

Can anyone help as I don't want to lose this document.

Thanks
Linda

It's hard to tell what's causing that message without knowing what the
document contained but if you want to try and recover the text from the
document you could try the following:

Start a blank document in Word

Click on Insert > File

Find the file that's giving you the problem and insert that.

Hopefully this may bring in the text from your file.
