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."
