Recovered Word 97 files are garbled

G

Gordon Corzine

Client got her system back from some repair shop only
find that years worth of files were gone. I ran File
Scavanger and it appeared to recover a great many.
However I try to open any of them they come up garbled
(boxes, etc.). System XP Home, Word is 97. Template
problem, font problem? How to troubleshoot and correct
this?
