unusual word problem

[reuhaj]

hello,



i have a weird problem with two of my word documents. basically i could open both files fine and both documents contain about 40-50 pages for my assignment. however now when i try opening it up from my usb (i have the same copy of the files on my usb and my documents) the documents open up as 6000 blank pages. i tired opening it up on my laptop (which runs vista) and the document opens up as 6000 blank pages. i tried on a pc (which runs xp) and it opens up as 6000 pages of small squares.

i dnt hav another copy of either files is there any way i can fix this problem?
any help is appreciated

Thank you in advance
