Weird File Format

sbi5ar · 23 Aug 2011 at 10:30

Two very quick questions...

What program can I use to open a .ofv file? (internet provides no answer) and Why would some one use this file type over other more recognisable file types?

Cheers

What is it supposed to be, a document, a picture? etc

It is supposed to be a document (more specifically a tenancy agreement)... Might try re-naming it and see what happens

Have you tried opening the file in openoffice?

No,

On my Mac (don't judge me

) it won't open with anything and on the work computer (XP) it won't open with anything (comes up with the weird text thing if opened with word/excell etc...)

What happens if you try to open it with notepad?

Page after page of random characters...
