Can't open a v12 file in CorelDraw v12

Hi,

CorelDraw v12
Windows 7

I created a v12 file yesterday - basically all text and only 57k size.  I tried to open it this mornign but it won't open. Tried the backup version but still wont open either.  It seen to begin to ipen according to the progress bar but stops less than half way and CorelDraw stops responding.  I need to close it using task manager.

Have searched the net but nothing specific that helps me.  I would upload a copy here but can't find any method of attaching/uploading a file here.

Any help much appreciated.

Many tyhankd for reading,

Neil
