Ouch! I have played with Word trying to fix things-without any luck. ResEdit WILL add a resource fork to a PC file-so there may be a way to add a NEW resource fork. Hopefully your data fork is OK. I am FAR from being an expert on this so I will say no more. I DID see a book on ResEDIT once-wish I had BOUGHT IT!!!!!! Try contacting APPLE TECH support-they may be able to tell you what the title is, otherwise do a search on Amazon.com Good Luck Eric
