Can publisher 2000 merge to an access 2000 query.

I

Ian McLeish

I have a database which is in Access 2000 format, and I was trying to pull
information from it into Publisher 2000. I keep getting an error that goes
something like " Publisher cannot open the file, it may be damaged or in a
format Publisher does not understand" The mdb file opens fine in Access 2000
and in XP version (which is on another PC), and is definitely in Access 2000
format. Another mdb on my computer will open and work properly with
Publisher, but the info I want is not in that one, this leads me to think
that there must be something wrong with the database? Any suggestions would
be gratefully recieved. Another, probably unrelated question, if I can get
this first part to work, can this version of Publisher merge to a query
anyway, or would I need to upgrade to XP version to get this functionality? I
know I could save the query as a table, but this would not automatically
update from the main datasource as that changed, would it?

Thanks,

Ian
