I saved two Word docs to my desktop. I don't know how the files became
corrupted but I can't open the files, delete or rename them. When I try to
do any of the above, I get an error message that says: "Cannot delete file:
Cannot read from the source file or disk." or the message says it can't read
the file, etc.

What's going on and what can I do?

Asking in an appropriate Windows group, rather than in this .NET
programming group will get you a lot more help.

To find the group you need:

http://www.microsoft.com/communitie...spx?guid=1080912A-26C5-7040-AFDD-2224A4FEB3EA

Select your language from the Tree View on the left, then scroll down to
Windows. In Windows, select your version of Windows and find an applicable
group there.
 
You're so right! Sorry, I didn't realize I had posted it in the wrong group.

Thanks for telling me.
