If you expect that it actually contains data not in the real file, open it then force save to XML, otherwise say No and delete it.

Yup, I think that's exactly what happened. I did have a FM crash, and did choose OK for the recover file.

In the future, should I say NO to opening the recover file, and delete it?

Thank you.

Hi Steve...

It sounds like this file *is* an FM file. Try forcing a save to XML (with a .ditamap extension) overwriting itself and you should be OK. this happens when FM crashes and you say OK to the prompt to open the recover file.

Hello,
I have a ditamap that, when I do a simple save, Framemaker wants to save it as a .fm file. My other ditamaps don't do this. Something I've noticed is that this particular ditamap has a file size of about 1.2 mb, where the others are all around 25k.

Any idea what could be happening here?

Thank you.
