How to recover corrupt rich-text requirement content

You can recover corrupt rich-text requirement content that was originally created using Microsoft Word, by converting it to plain text.

Caution: Any formatting or images included in the original rich-text requirement content are lost during the conversion to plain text. Only the text is retained in the requirement content.

Procedure

1. In Systems Engineering, open the requirement structure that contains the requirement object or objects with the corrupt rich-text requirement content.
2. In the Requirements view, insert the Content Type property column.
3. For each requirement object that you want to recover the corrupted rich-text content:
   • Select the structure line for the requirement object.
   • Set the Content Type value to Plain Text.

The corrupted rich-text requirement content for the object is converted to plain text. You can now view or edit the plain text requirement content.
