I noticed this when the last batch of technotes came out a few months ago
and reported it to the Word 4 team. They said they'd investigate it; I 
haven't heard anything since. They did discover a work-around, however.
Open one of these "bad" technotes in an old MacWrite (I use 4.6, I don't
know about 4.5). Then save a completely new copy of the note. Word will
now be able to read it. It's a pain, but fortunately I think only 4 of
the new technotes had this problem.
