What sort of disc? Did you save to floppy? In which case they are probably
corrupt. Never ever read from, write to, or print from floppy with Word.
These are the most certain methods of ensuring document corruption.
Copy to the hard disc and work on the document from there.
This is equally relevant to other removable media such as CDRW.

I have saved all my documents (word2003) to disc prior to purchasing
a new laptop. To date I have installed word2003, and sp2 update.
The problem occurs on about 70% of saved documents when I try to open
them. The result of this action is umpteen pages of small squares,
which looks similar to unicode format.
Any ideas what is the matter? I wasnt given the option to open with
any other format, and besides the files were definately saved as .doc
files. They do however contain an excel table (unlinked), although I
am dubious that this is the problem.
Thank you in advance.
