OK, our secretary managed to scramble the FAT & root directory on a
floppy via Word Perfect 5.1 . (Apparently switching to another floppy
for Document #2 is bad news!) Anyway, I managed to match the clusters
with a hardcopy of the file & get a file that WP can read/write.

BUT, at the end of the final cluster is some random trash not in the 
original file. When you arrow down to the bottom of the file, WP takes
you back to the top!! Doing a Cntrl-PgDwn at the end of the document
throws you down to pg 163 or so, and it's a 7 page document!

I looked at another WP file to see what Hex character ended the file then
tried this at the end of my problem file. Still problems!

Has anyone encountered this and found a solution?

Thanks,

Rich
