FAQ: How to Fix Issues Opening Older .doc Files in Newer Versions of Word (e.g., Version 2505+)

This week on Klariti we look at how to open older versions of MS Word .doc files in newer versions of Word. This can cause a lot of headaches especially if your legacy files you need to use and Word doesn’t appear to be able to open them.
What I’m going to show you is why this is happening, then walk through different methods to resolve it, and finally wrap up with some ‘best practices’ you can use for the next set of document conversions. We’ll also flag a few gotchas you need to watch out for.

How to Write CHAT-GPT Prompts to Create Technical Summaries

Let’s now look at how to write the actual prompt to summarize the text.
After you’ve uploaded the material to Chat-GPT/Claude/Poe, you must write a prompt (actually a series of prompts as can refine the summary results as you progress).
The simplest way to do this is to ask Chat-GPT how to create summaries, which is what I did.

Are you still writing Business Continuity Plans that hard way? + Get New AI BCP Prompt Toolkit

A few months ago, I started experimenting with AI (Claude is my perference, fwiw) to see if it could help. My initial results were… ok but that’s all. It gave me generic, high-level ‘stuff’. But I didn’t give up. I realized the problem wasn’t the AI; it was my instructions. In AI speak, these are called ‘prompts’.

So, after a bit of trial and error, I learned to write more specific prompts. And the results really made a difference.

That’s part of the reason why I created the AI Prompt Toolkit for Business Continuity Planning. It’s the result of months of testing and refinement, so that you can craft better, more detailed, and truly personalized BCPs in less time.
