    Hello,

    I have a problem to open my database (data.bib) with JabRef. When I want to
    open my database, an error warning appears :
    "Error in line 5972: EOF in mid-string"

    I precise that I haven't made any change last time I used the database, and I
    haven't download a new version of JabRef.
    How can I recover it ?

    Do a backup copy of your file. Open your data.bib file in a plain-text editor,
    and look at what you find at line 5972. Most probably the file is truncated,
    or corrupted at that place.
