Hi,all
I have the next problem :
I had some tapes, on them had some backups that I did 6 years ago.

Two years ag I needed that info, tried to restore with Arcserve for Nt 4.0 server and received message saying that tapes had expiration date , so was not possible to restore the info.
Now with Arcserve 2000 on Windows 2000 server I tried again and have restored the info.
If I browse into the folders, the info looks fine (Name of files,Size,icons of documents etc, but when I try to open a document says" Invalid type of file" in any kind of file
except the graphic files (BMP,JPG). It seems the info is corrupted
That info first was on Novell 4.1 and passed to Win NT and then win 2000 server


Any idea.
?
Thanks
