--- Comment #2 from Jeremy <[email protected]> 2011-10-04 20:00:26 UTC ---
I'm currently using a nightly build now for pretty much all of my
investigation, and have actually had a bit of luck with getting improvements
submitted.

The problem with many of these documents is that they are older versions of
word likely from 1995-2001.  And also have the possability of originating from
Asian countries.

The files aren't corrupt enough to the point where Word2010 can't open them...
but thats not saying too much.  I've encountered numerous header signature
issues which I'm kind of avoiding all together since the largest % are from
~based files... though a few are able to be opened by word.

I'll take a look at using the validator on a few of the files and see what I
get in the next few days.


BTW, thanks Nick for the help on the Outlook issue #51873 a week ago.  If you
get a chance can you revist my final msg there.  There was a small bug in the
patch you placed into the trunk for me.


Thanks again.
