I have a directory that was originally all ".doc" files and were copied over to an external hdd. Now all the files are 'binary' files. Some have extensions, many do not.

I tried opening them with the following commands after making them executable, and separately, without making them executable.

chmod +x filename.bin (or filename.chk) 

For example: chmod +x file.chk This resulted in $ on the next line.

./filename.bin (or ./filename.chk)

For example: ./file.chk This resulted in "cannot execute binary file" "exec format error".

  If the files were .doc before, that generally suggest that they were MS Word documents. If so, why are you trying to execute them?

  For the commands above, the person who wrote that suggestion stated to first make sure they are executable. I tried it without and with 'executable' - same result. I have not seen the ext ".bin" on any of them, just ".chk" or no ext. Thanks.
