Word files corrupted on memory sticks

Sad to say guys...but just like here in Australia...if you refuse to buy
Chinese products,you'll be going without a hell of a lot of stuff!! The
only real problem with Chinese made products in the Electronic Industry
is...Is it Genuine??...there are a lot of counterfeits out there,but
some assurances can be had by using trusted sellers/products etc,and
ensuring that you have a definite contact for Warranty issues and that
the seller is a legitimate agent or manufacturer. I have bought a few US
made products that were just cheap crap too...but I don't brand all of
that country's products as crap!The other thing is: how many of your
so-called US made stuff is actually MADE IN CHINA-to us standards ? Does
this make them as good as the ACTUALLY Made in USA? Reality is..the US
are largely responsible for creating a world market,forcing others
(Australia included) to drop their tarriffs on imports etc so US
manufacturers had full global access...then argue no fair if anyone buys
a non-us made item. When this issue is raised the US is full of
condemnation and accusitory statements to divert the issue..but the
truth remains!!:zip:

I have two Kingston memory USB sticks.

One 1Gig and the other 4Gig and both work quite well.

And both say Made in China on them.

You posted that exact message twice today and once on the 26th... that
should be enough.

 

Are you using Word 2007 or Word 2003 on the Vista system? If you were
using Word 2007 in Vista, the default for storing the files is .docx
whilst the documents on your stick are .doc - that could create a
problem. You have to make sure they are being stored as .doc if they go
back on the stick.
