-- THanks for the tips and the link to the troubleshooting. I tried them all and nothing seemed to work. I have just about given up and am back to starting the task again. It has been very frustrating because I have all the information recovered, but publisher just will not accept it...perhaps because it was a layout for a web page for a school's PE department that included many pictures and about 10 pages of "designs", there was too much for publisher to decode back to its original form. I can see the text and the pictures, but publusher will not open! Anyway, thanks and I am back to the drawing board.

I have recovered a publisher file -web page layout from my flash drive that I
accidentally deleted. I cannot, however, get it to open in publisher again.
Any suggestions?

Never, never save to a removable disk. Save to the hard drive, copy to the
removable disk. When you are ready to edit the file, re-copy to the hard drive,
do the edits, save and then re-copy to the removable disk.

Hi Mary,
thanks for reply. No, I don't use any antivirus. I'm not sure how could I
technically describe the file I have. Imagine Publisher is saving file to the
disk and it crashes in middle of this task. So let's say there is the first
half of the pub file. Is it possible to get the data from there?
Regarding my publication I did it over again, but I'm asking in case it
happens again.

I hope I did not offend you. I should have been more attentive to the
original post.

That's okay Mary, English is not my first language and I do mistakes. Actually
I see couple of them when reading my post and feel ashamed for them. I always
welcome any language correction of my posts, I just haven't learned anything
from your note.

I really appreciate your kindly help for all.
Jan.

Hello Jan,
Explain what you are trying to do. Obviously English is not your first

No of the steps written there does recover your publication if the file is
just cutted out, eg. when the Publisher crashed during save. What to do
with such file (uncompleted file may be the issue of bizerque as well)?

That's true, however, if Publisher crashes during saving, it does not matter
whether it was saving to the hard drive or removable disk.

I don't know what the solution is for damage done while saving. The search in
the temp folder might help.
There are recovery programs that could recover your file from the flash drive.
Some of these programs are pricy.
