document in publisher 2000 on XP- won't open win98

I created a 4 page document in publisher on my computer with XP and Office
2000. Took it to another computer with office 200o and windows 98 and it
wouldn't open correctly. Why is this.

When you say correctly, does it mean it opens but some formatting is lost? Do both
computers have the same fonts loaded? Are you trying to open the file from removable
media? Copy the file to the hard drive and try again.

it was all x's and some square boxes. It was just times new roman font. I
copied it onto a removable storage disk and loaded it onto the hard drive.
It opens perfectly on my computer at the office - which is XP, but my
assistant has windows 98. We are networked and so she opened it from that.
Maybe if she saved it to her own hard drive it would work? Thanks for your
reply.
