Failed to Read Record 2 62 :'(
:'(:'(:'(:'(
It;s only 3 pages so far but I worked on it for a few hours and they were BEAUTIFUL. The work was saved FREQUENTLY and then suddenly something froze. I got a popup message that said "resources were low" and then it wouldn't do anything. I didn't panic because I had just saved my work. So I shut down the program, removed some stuff from my hard drive and went to grab my project. Then I got this:

Hmmmm. I've tried multiple ways of accessing. I also looked to see the size of the file and while small, there is data there. It was only three pages so the size could be a reflection of that. I reallllly want to avoid redoing these pages.
Any ideas on how to correct this issue?

I hate when this happens.
Try File > Open Recent > Backups...
Try opening some of your more recent backup files until you find one that is not corrupted. You may not have lost everything.
The locking the barn door after the horse has been stolen approach is when you save your work, us Save As... and give your file a sequential number, my site 1, my site 2, my site 3, etc. Then if a file gets corrupted, you can try the previously saved version.

if you open a blank document and in file menuu go to: open recent/backups
you may find a backup copy that will have at least some of your work
the error message sounds like a corrupt file.. I'd be checking the integrity of both hard drive and memory - might just have been a power dip or system conflict
EDIT: gary beat me to the backups :)
Re: Failed to Read Record 2 62 :'(
Try looking for a backup that Xara made automatically and seeing if that opens.
Under your C: drive- users-"computer name"-appdata-local- xara-"program Version"-backups
It may not be the most up to date but you will not have to rebuild from scratch.

Gary,
I have never looked at the bottom of the list and did not know this. All these years I have been doing it the hard way.
Thanks
