Is starting over even an option? ;) Backup anywhere? Are you trying to open it in Constructor? Which version?
Do you have a hex editor around that you can look at the contents of the file in the .frk directory? Does it look like the data is still there? If the resource map in the .frk file gets hosed, you can lose the references to the data but the data is still there. Fixing a messed up resource map in a resource file is nearly impossible. Do you have a Mac around that you can try to resurrect the file from? Even an older Mac (system 8 or 9) would be fine. You can copy the 0 byte file and the hidden resource.frk folder to a Windows floppy and then go to a Mac to try to fix it. There used to be some tools that ran on Mac for inflating and deflating flattened resource files for just this purpose. Perhaps someone still has them. Then use ResEdit to poke around on the Mac. -E > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Edward P.
