Visio 2003 Professional Error 1411

I created a regular Visio file a few days ago with only a few rectangles,
arrows and some words in rectangles. When I tried openning the file, I
received a errror code 1411. Anyone has encountered similar problem before
and succeeded working around it? Thank you!

The error code itself links to the error message "There was an error
reading or writing OLE data."
OLE stands for Object Linking and Embedding, and OLE data would include
things like links from another application (embedded Excel chart, PPT
slide, Word text, image from a photo-shop type program). It sounds like
the drawing contained a an object or a link to something external which
can't be resolved, and thus causing the error. It may be something as
simple as a picture pasted in from clip art or a web site, for instance.

There is an article on troubleshooting damaged drawings that has several
steps you can try to recover the drawing contents:
