Ubuntu12.04 Libre office ".odt" & ".doc" file problem
I have been working on a document that is extremly important that wants to cause me great frustration. I went to open it today and was initially faced with a pop up box :
ASCII filter options
character set[Unicode UTF-8]
Default fonts[Times New Roman]
Langauge[English]
etc etc etc
Regarless of if I chose "cancel" or "ok" change/dont change options, I then recive this pop up
DOCUMENT IN USE
blah blah is locked for editing by unknown user
I am then given the option to either "Open read only"/"Open a Copy"/"Cancel"
Opening one of these options brings me to a completly blank page!! If I look at the file in /Documents then it shows 0 bytes in the properties. Where is all of my work? Please no one tell me to enable the backup settings as I have NOW done that(this is not set as default because....??)anyway. I need to know how to save This document not close the gate after the horse has bolted.
Details:
OS - Ubuntu 12.04
RAM 2.5GB
