=================================
As I stated in my reply....

"MS Publisher 2000 could probably open
the older .pub files and allow you to save
them in a format that the more current versions
of Publisher could open."

IOW...you need MS Publisher 2000 to open
the files and save them in a format that the
newer version can open.

If you only have a few files...maybe one of the
regulars in the newsgroup will offer to convert
them for you. Otherwise, I guess you'll have to
purchase some software. I just hope Pub2000
will open the old files for you. No guarantees...
sorry.

If you want to upload some of the files to the
following site...post the download links here
and I'll have a look at them.

"YouSendIt"
http://www.yousendit.com/

All you have to do is enter an e-mail
address in the Recipient field and
click the browse button to select the
file you wish to upload. Then click the
"Send It" button.

The next screen that appears will give
you the download link. Just copy/paste
it into your reply to this newsgroup..

Amazon and eBay are good sources for
outdated software.

Steve, I could open 4 of these files in Publisher 97, one file completely locked
up my computer. I am going to wait to hear from John before I send them to you,
he may have had better luck.

I couldn't open any of the files with Publisher 2000 SR-3.
I don't use Norton, I use AVG SOHO.

Thanks ALL for all your efforts. Both the final PUBs, the Billy & Tiny
Chronicles were able to be converted, and I guess the others may have been
prior drafts. And thanks to your efforts, I was able to enjoy these all over
again after all these years.
And even though you didn't know the people, I hope you at least got some
amusement out of the chronicles for your efforts.

Thanks again,

Steve
