I haven’t looked at FM for some time, but I suspect that random “end of document “ character is the key. I’ve experienced a similar issue a long time ago.
Try opening a new document and then copying and pasting paragraph by paragraph from the corrupted document to the new one, but do NOT copy the “end of document” character. To be safe, don’t copy the last word! Save your new doc frequently. If you’re really cautious, save it with a different name. See if that works. Good luck!
