Hi there,

A friend of mine had a 'minor' data corruption problem a few days ago and asked me to help him out ;)

Anyway, the crux of the problem is that one of his favourite portfolio PSDs was £@%*ed on the disk. I think I have got a .chk file with it in (I hope) but I need to open the file up and see the header and file end.

Is there a good (ideally free) utility (like BBEdit) that can do this on a WinXP PC?

Thanks for your time (and help??)...

PS. The file is about 17Mb!
