My PC rebooted unexpectedly and several peices of data in several files seem to have gone missing or is corrupt. Is there any freeware or tools in MS Offices 2000 that will help me uncorrupt.
Thanks

Hi

Have you also checked the default folders for Office? Look for any *.tmp and files starting with a ~. These are often used by Office apps as temporary folders.

Good luck
