Converting old Publisher

[Jason]

One of our (old) computers in the office has an old
version of Publisher on it, it is running Win 3.11, that
we use every day. We have just gotten new computers but
we can't open any of our old files created in the (old)
Publisher format. Our new computers use Publisher 2000.
Can anyone tell me how to convert the old files to a
useable format?

It sounds like the old computer may be running Microsoft Publisher 1.0
The only later version that will open files from Publisher 1.0 is Publisher
2.0
If it is 1.0, you'll need to find someone who has 2.0 to convert the files
for you.
