    It would help if you would state your platform and operating system and that
    of the person who gave or sent you the file.

    The most frequent problem is that the file was damaged when sent as an email
    attachment.

    See Bill's recent post under the subject line,
    "Windows client can't open my FHMX Mac files"

    kkalimero,

    Another possiblity is that the file was corrupted during it's last save.
    That has happened to me once, and I've heard of it happening to others. In
    my case, the file ended up being just a few KB in size; not enough to hold
    the data that should have been in the file. You might check the file
    properties and see if it looks large enough to hold it's content.
    BTW, in your first post, you wanted to open a fh9 doc in FHMX; in the
    second you are asking about opening a fh11 doc. Are you trying to open
    both?

    Hi Bill,

    Thanks a lot for your reply!!!

    My friend mailed me those 2 files in attempt that I could open it...

    It was impossible in both.

    I believe that problem is in the last save or in the e-mail... Can you PLEASE
    help me to resolve this matter if this is the really the problem?!

    Thanks a LOT!

    If the problem does lie in the email transmission, you might try having
    your friend compress the file with Stuffit or MacZip before sending. You
    can download a free Aladdin Expander at aladdinsys.com to open the archive
    once you receive it.

    I don't think the problem could be from corruption during save, since your
    friend has saved (or exported) and sent it twice.
