    It is often a memory issue, when working you may not notice that you have sized down to fit some really large bitmaps, in which case they look fine on screen but are eating up lots of RAM. When importing, there is an importing script written by wOxxOm which resamples images at 300 dpi automatically and can thereby PREVENT problems.
    Somethings which may help you open the file if it has not gone entirely corrupt, do not use any desktop wallpaper, it eats memory. Turn off any Terminate and Stay programs you can turn off in your right hand task bar of Windows, eats memory. Allocate DRAW 60% of your available RAM and set up your scratch disks. On a file of many pages and when working with color, it may be necessary to link your bitmaps to have the resources to keep working.

    see software cdr.viewertool.com

    Put as much RAM in your computer as it can hold or you can afford.
