Does anyone have any techniques to suggest for resurrecting a corrupt
file that won't load and won't recover?  The recover text tells me
there are hundreds of invalid items, then tries to load the file, then
crashes AutoCad.  All .bak files come up invalid.  TIA

I use TurboCad to open and save corruped Autocad files that acad can not
open.
After I open the file with AutoCad and purge all the unnecessary stuff that
is added by TurboCad, ie, linetypes, text styules...,and set SNAPUNIT
variable to a acceptable value. Turbocad comes with SNAPUNIT=0.0,0.0 wich is
invalid.
After this everything looks OK.

I've seen PARTIALOPEN reccommended for the problem you are having but have
never tried it.

Have you tried INSERT?

Do you have access to Autodesk Map? If so try querying it in.

Sometimes cancelling out of the RECOVER command will open corrupt drawings.
