open office
dear ladies and gentlemen,
i have to apologize for asking you directly about my issue. there are lots
of help-desks, faqs, etc. i was not able to use them or when trying to do
so, learned they had been shut down.
well, in 2008 i stored a couple of files, generated with the then most up
to date oo-word-processor, on an external hard disk.
the other day, when i opened one of those files with the present
oo-word-processor, i found that -depending on the text-filter i used- i
could read lots of "funny" characters, except a coherent text.
i attached the file, perhaps you -as the present oo-specialists- have an
idea how to make it readable. btw. i did already ask a handful of
specialists here. they provided me with professional advice, alas it was
all unsuccessful.
i thank you very much in advance for your assistance in this matter.
best wishes
from

I agree with Andrew, that is not an ODT file. It is something else. It is not a recognizable format accepted by OpenOffice.
Did you have compression or encryption on the external drive at some point?

The file is binary, the last for characters, ASBF, were associated with
a Trojan.

I doubt that anything will open this file. It looks like a partial file, perhaps only part of an archive. I'd suggest runing chkdsk on the floppy, selecting any proposed fixes, and then trying the file on the floppy again.

I have found that Libre Office will open some files that Open Office cannot open.

The files does not appear to be an ODT file.
I peeked at the first few bytes of the file, and it should begin with
PK,and it does not. I renamed the file to x.zip, and then I should have
been able to "unzip" the file, but I could not.
Has the file extension been changed?
