Thanks to Richard for the solution – the file wouldn't open due to a problem in LyX2LyX, which has now been corrected. Cheers! Eran

old document corrupted

I opened a lyx file written in 2007 with 1.6.1. It failed to open. But worse, it now shows up as 0 bytes and won't open with a text editor. Any advice? -- Dr Eran S. Kaplinsky Faculty of Law University of Alberta 447 Law Centre Edmonton · AB · T6G 2H5 C A N A D A

I don't mean take-your-vitamins-stay-in-school advice! I have a bunch of documents written in version 1.4.3, and 1.3.7 and lower, and they won't open. Any advice?
