Framemaker 10/Ditamap odd behavior

[Steve Nelson]

Yup, I think that's exactly what happened. I did have a FM crash, and did
choose OK for the recover file.
 
In the future, should I say NO to opening the recover file, and delete it?
 
Thank you.

Hi Steve...

It sounds like this file *is* an FM file. Try forcing a save to XML (with a
.ditamap extension) overwriting itself and you should be OK. this happens
when FM crashes and you say OK to the prompt to open the recover file.

Hello, 
I have a ditamap that, when I do a simple save, Framemaker wants to save it
as a .fm file. My other ditamaps don't do this.  Something I've noticed is
that this particular ditamap has a file size of about 1.2 mb, where the
others are all around 25k.

Any idea what could be happening here? 

Thank you.
