OpenOfffice has now deleted the content of 2 very long documents that I saved multiple times and created backups for. Each time I opened the document, all of the content was replaced with page after page of pound keys. I haven't found any useful information through forums or on your website on retrieving these documents, and I would like to know if there's anyway to save my work instead of having to start over again. Please get back to me soon.

Operating system? Version of OpenOffice? Did you download your cop of OpenOffice *only from *www.openoffice.org? It is extremely unlikely that your files have been deleted.

Are you working with ODF? This is important since using DOC or DOCX might be lost in convertion, specially if you are using some odd content in the document (like flash inserts or something similar) also known as binary objects.

I usually see this when I open a text file using the wrong character set... Please also include the file type when saved... What was the file name with extension. If the file extension is wrong, most programs open it incorrectly.
