Upgraded from XP to Publisher 2003
I upgraded my software from Publisher XP to Publisher 2003, and now I am not
able to open any Publisher files that were done in the XP edition. I get the error message "Publisher cannot find the file you specified." I have tried uninstalling the 2003 and reinstalling the XP edition, but for some reason the XP CD is now corrupt! Does anyone know how I can fix this? |

Do you have Norton installed on your system?

it would be very unusual to corrupt a read-only CVD. So unusual that I'd
have to say it was impossible without special software. Somehting else hase changed radically on your system. A new user has been defined, perhaps--making older files/applications invisible. Or there is some other problem.

Ding ding ding. Norton is notorious for causing issues in Publisher. Can you
disable "script blocking" and maybe "Office Plug-ins"? -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "NonProfitAdminAsst" wrote in message ... I have Symantec Corporate Edition installed.
