Can't Open Indd file

[Greg_Karais@adobeforums.com]

Anyone able to help.

I sent a file of mine to a contractor and got it back, now I can't open the damn thing. Anyhone able to help, I have indd 4.04. I've renamed and duplicated but can't get anywhere with it. Is it possible that I can't open it b/c her software is either a) not up to date, b) not registered or c) I have no idea.

If you can help, thanks,

Greg

Since you haven't given us a shread of info about what the contractor
did or what happens when you try there's really not much more than we
could but guess...so I'll go first: e-mail corruption. Files should
always be zipped or stuffed before emailing.

If anyone is looking, file was zipped when sentback to me, B&W, 1.7mb.

She basically updated text and moved a few boxes around, not complicated work at all, very basic.

Again...what happens when you try to open it? And I'm assuming you
unzipped it first.

Greg, if you are looking (Bob answered you in 4 minutes, so there was at least someone looking; and you replied in 3 minutes, so you were looking too), it's good practice to give from the beginning as much relevant information about your problem as possible. If in doubt whether a piece of information is relevant or not, post it. It's better to post redundant information than wasting your time, and the time of those trying to help you, in a long interchange of posts trying to understand your problem just because you wrote as if you thought we were mind readers.

had it saved as an exchange file and was able to open it.

thanks for your help.
