    XPress 6.5 Library Changed to "multiple language document"

    My XPress 6.5 Library changed itself to a multiple language document and now says it will only open with Passport (which I don't have). I have had other 6.5 files decide they were multiple language documents all of a sudden and have been able to get around it but the library won't open at all. I have tossed my Preferences twice and it still won't open. Any workarounds? I hate to lose this library.

    I don't think there are any workarounds. Libraries don't function exactly like documents (you can't deliberately save them). Did anything in this library originate from Microsoft Word? Word has a tendency to transfer garbage when you copy and paste from it. It's been responsible for "converting" a few standard documents to passport because there were characters from a different language inside the document.

    Nope, no Word files ... all were items I created in 6.5. I closed the library on Oct. 9 and when I had work for the same client today, I tried to open it and it gave me the error message. Thanks for trying to help. I guess I just have to suck it up and go recreate.
