Hi R.Pradeep,

According to your description, my understanding is that the files/data were not created with Word 2007. It might be create with third-party program. Am I right?

Then, would you like to share us the error/alert message when you open the files with Word 2007?

You might share us a sample file, Im glad to help and follow up your reply.

The file extension mentioned is a Word format i don't think so please open it with the suitable program and convert it.

3D modeling programs that have the SpeedTreeMAX or SpeedTreeMAYA plugins installed, such as IDV SpeedTree CAD, AutoDesk 3ds Max 2011 and AutoDesk Maya 2011, can open SPT files. 

and Phm ?

Your screenshot suggests the file is actually a Spectrascan file, not an MS Word file (note the word 'Spectrascan' in the screenshot.

Do note that simply saving (or renaming) a file with a .doc or .docx extension does not convert it to a valid Word file. Conversely, if you take a valid Word file and change the extension to .phm or .spt, Word will no longer recognise it and will be unable to open the file until the extension is corrected. The same applies to files belonging to other programs. In this case, though, it seems you should be able to open the file with the 'Spectrascan' application.

Dear Mr.Paul Edstein,

I agree with your valuable point & suggestion.

It seems to be open the file with Spectrasacn application only.
