Sh*t like this happens from time to time. Maybe you should check your .cs with a hex Editor. Even hard to believe that VS stumbles about a Thing like this, I only know that for legacy development environments (non unicode) like bcb6 do have such kind of problems.

He had a power failure leading to a corrupted file - how is VS or a hex editor going to help with that? :)

Hex Editor: Recognizing and Correcting the "crashed" part of the file. I had to do this several time... not with VS but with Borland :) And BTW not because of a power fail. Borland was/is(?) able to do this by "default" :-)

how to use it? how it fix it?

Now, please note, this is not a General advice and you Need to pay Attention.
a.) Download Notepad++. Notepad++ does usually forgive and correct automatically Errors in files. Open the file, edit the file e.g. simply add a space and save it.
Try after that whether VS is happy with the file.

b.) Hard way
Download a Hex Editor. Check the file (I assume it is Unicode) from beginning to end, whether every char is Unicode.... boring work, I know.

c.) In case it is acceptable for you...
Publish the zipped file on drop box or similar and we can have a look to it and try to fix it. This Option is especially related to my ego to check whether I'm wrong or right :-) ... uups just recognized you published it on Google drive. Not an Option for me, I do not like to Register at Google ;)

Please edit your question (use the green "Improve question"-link below your question) and post the contents of the file that's giving you trouble.

In case of a corrupted file the compiler error explanations don't help much..

Maciej Los 14-Feb-16 10:26am

Sascha, the error message is quite obvious. This does not mean file is corrupted.

Member 12131277 14-Feb-16 10:34am

ok.how to open this file?

Sascha Lefèvre 14-Feb-16 10:44am

Maciej, please re-read his first paragraph of the question. The file is corrupted.

Richard MacCutchan 14-Feb-16 11:34am

How do you know that? The only information we have is that there is something wrong with his source, and it may be a simple typo.

That still does not prove that this is anything more than a programming error. Without sight of the file it is impossible to be sure what the error is.

Sascha Lefèvre 14-Feb-16 12:47pm

You're right, Richard. I assumed too much there.

[no name] 14-Feb-16 12:54pm

Right? .... as Long you are not familiar with Unicode and what can happen if such a file will become inconsistent. Because than it will become much more than an "syntax"/"programming" error.

Sascha Lefèvre 14-Feb-16 13:00pm

It still could be corrupted though ;)

[no name] 14-Feb-16 13:04pm

What I think is the case. I would help on this but I don't like to Register to Google to download the pb :-)

You need to read the question once more.
