Cannot convert or open corrupted word files

[Gregory P.]

The 911 Trojan Horse corrupted several of my word files. I was able to
recover...however, I'm unable to read then using any of the file conversions.
Please anyone...."HELP"...lol

Not sure how you were "able to recover", but you most likely have
incomplete Word files, which is why Word gives you the file
conversion dialog when it can't recognize the file format.

I used Stellar Phoenix FAT & NTFS to recover many files and was able to
salvage information. However, with an incomplete Word File, is it possible
to salvage some of the information if not all? Thanks "G -n- O"

You can try opening it using the Recover Text from Any File setting in
"Files of type."

i have the same problem. please tell me where do you find "Recover Text from
Any File setting in "Files of type.""

You click on the drop down list (the down-facing arrow to the right of the
Files Type dialog) and scroll down the list to Recover Text from Any File.

In the File | Open dialog, there is a dropdown list box labeled "Files of
type." Scroll down to "Recover Text from Any File."
