Sorry to say the file is probably corrupted, and being that you saved in the .mb format, impossible to recover.

I always suggest saving in the .ma while you are working. ASCII format can often be fixed by hand in a text editor, but the binary format cannot be opened and fixed.

There is no guarantee that an ASCII file can be re-covered.

The best is to make incremental saves and open a backup-file.

You can however upload the file to see if someone can help you.

Please open a new thread for this.
