There's a utility for recovering corrupt FW files that Ashton-Tate has made 
available through a number of online services.  It's called FWRecover and its
author is Support Guru Kent Irwin.  I'm sure that if you call Ashton-Tate they
can tell you how to get it.  (It's definitely available on Compuserve, GEnie, 
MacNet, and Ashton-Tate's Support Bulletin Board.

  These ill considered and poorly constructed ideas are my own,
