Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM IS PERMANENT RESTRICTION IN
  CATIA
  Incident Diagnosis :
  A CATDrawing file cannot be opened (error
  message "invalid data"
  Restriction Explanation :
  The CATDrawing file has been analyzed, and it
  contains some invalid data (truncated data
  describing some geometrical elements). There is
  no way to restore this data - CATDUA cannot
  automatically repair such invalid data, and even a
  manual repair of the data did not succeed.
  The data itself contains no information on the
  possible scenario that lead to this corruption. It is
  certainly during the last save of this data, and it
  can be either a software or hardware problem
  which is the cause. Any additional information or
  scenario that lead to this data could be useful to
  track the cause
  By-Pass :
  There is no bypass, as the data is truncated and
  cannot be repaired (automatically or manually)
  .
