    Hi!

    I've got a serious problem with a file I'm working on with Abiword in Win2000 (SP4,
    AMD CPU)

    It's the homework for my university, and as such started as a Winword .DOT template
    imported into Abiword.
    I saved it as .DOC, but suddenly (after two times or so) Abiword crashed when I tried to
    save.
    I then tried saving in both the .ABW and .ABT formats, which seemingly worked. The
    PC didn't crash.
    But when trying to re-open the files, I always get the following error message (in
    English):

    Parse error loading file (...) , not well-formed (invalid token) at line 63.

    After clicking OK it says (in German, localized version): Couldn't open, file invalid.

    I tried to search BugZilla, but didn't get any results for "invalid token".
    Could any of you please help me? This is very important to me, as roughly 50-60% of
    my work seems gone (OK, paranoid as I am I saved the raw .TXT, too, but all the re-
    formatting, toc, footnotes, etc will be hours, probably days of work), and finishing date is
    the 4th of March.

    You can download the files at

    They're in German, but that should be a problem as I guess the error is in the binary (or
    "language-unaware") part of the files.

    I'd be very grateful for any help and support you can provide to resolve the issue!

    Thanks in advance,

    Christoph Huebner
