I noticed that it always seem to be the central directory and the last few files which seem to be corrupt. Most likely this is indeed the result of a (failed) delayed write to external media.

Unfortunately, Microsoft tends to put the document.xml file, the most important file in the archive, towards the end thereby making the document 'less' recoverable in my opinion. If document.xml would be the first entry in the archive, I'm convinced that more documents would be recoverable. Losing styles, settings, metadata and perhaps even some graphics is less of an issue than losing the actual text.

I always wondered why Microsoft made that decision. The only 'sensible' reason I could come up with is that it limits the need to rewrite the entire archive whenever you change something to your document. The beginning of your archive (metadata, settings, ..) doesn't change all that often, so no need to rewrite it. But then again, they did introduce the in-place growing mechanismn which they don't use (well they introduce the overhead but don't reap the benefits when they can) which could solve some of these issues (e.g. only require a complete rewrite every 4th or 5th save operation).

Certainly I've seen files with the central directory missing, but that can often be rebuilt, allowing at least partial recovery. I've also seen quite a few files with a block starting at 0x800 having been overwritten, which has wiped out the crucial begining of the document.xml part - the sine qua non, but it is also the largest part so the most likely to be damaged.

I think you are being very kind to Microsoft to suggest there is any rationale to the ordering of parts <g>, I am prepared to believe that there may be a reason for the position of the properties parts - in the same way that the Summary Information streams of the old compound binaries were at the end of the file, but overall I doubt there was any strategy. The standard does not impose the order, so it could never be relied upon anyway. Mind you, the standard does not impose (many) part names, but you try creating a document where the document.xml part has a different name.

As for the growth mechanism, I'm afraid I just think it's totally misplaced - as out-of-date as the old fast save mechanism - and should not have been included in the standard. And I doubt the benefit to be gained from not, in theory, having to rewrite the whole file would be significant on computers equipped to run the applications, and would be offset by the potential for error in keeping track of what had, and had not, changed.
