Hi Gordon,
You may be able to open it if you delete the styles.xml portion of the
document. Copy the file and rename the copy to *.zip and open it with a
compression utility such as winzip. Delete styles.xml and close the
file. Rename it back to the original name. Open the file. If you've used
custom styles, they will be lost, but the content should be there.
As to why it happened, if you saved directly to the memory stick, there
may have been a write error or it may not have been properly closed
before you removed the stick.

I have a 1400 word document created on Open Office 2 (final). I did some
final editing on a machine using OO1.979 and saved it to a memory stick
to transfer to the machine for printing. In trying to open the file on
the second machine I get this error:
" Read Error.
Format error discovered in the file in sub-document styles.xml at
2,2654(row,col)"
Firstly can anyone tell me how to recover this document, and secondly,
why did this happen? There was no error message at all in editing and
saving on OO 1.979. (I get this same error trying to open the file on
1.979 as well as OO 2)
HELP!
Thanks
