I have ceated a document in XP Home Edition Publisher, I now need to open
this in Publisher 2000 but I am unable to do this, any help would be
appreciated.

In Publisher XP...when you save the file there is an option to save the file
as a 2000 one. Click on the drop down for the Save As box in the Save As
dialogue box and select the option to save as Publisher 2000 and once you
have saved it...try opening it in the Publisher 2000..it should open fine.

In addition to Sunairwater's response, I'd like to help you with a little
something.

There is no such thing as XP Home Edition of Publisher. There *is* an XP
Home Edition of Windows. What you meant, I believe, is Publisher 2002. I know
it's pedantic, but life goes so much better when you know the proper terms
for things like this. You are more likely to get accurate information when
you ask questions. :)

I will do my best to uphold the responsibilities of the job. If you see me
weakening, kick my arse, okay?

That would be a FRIENDLY reminder, something you are unaccustomed to
providing.

Actually she's gave me some great advice when I first posted here. And yes,
she's zinged me as well. I just sat here and laughed at/with her. I knew
someone else with that same twisted sense of humor several years ago and
maybe that's why I get along with her. :)

Yep - I find you hilarious at times.
And sometimes I think you need a good swift kick in the butt. But I'm not
the woman to do it. ;-)

Publisher 2002 was part of the "Office XP" branding however.

Yes, but there was neither an Office XP Home, nor a Publisher XP (Home or
otherwise)

Office 2003 makes things simpler, but it doesn't stop folks confusing
Office/Publisher version numbers with Windows version numbers.

I could scream every time I hear MS naming things similarly. Office for
Students and Teachers vs Microsoft Students, Works and Works Suite and Work
Essentials, etc. It tends to confuse the average consumer.

I didn't say you need pushed, I said kicked in the butt.

(I was going to make some comment about you being a Dan before you became
Miss T but that's too mean.)

Me thinks, and always have thunk, that MS's marketing dept has their heads up their arses when it comes to naming products. Naming a product by the year is dumb, versions make so much more sense.

No what's sad is you thinking that a few people who put up with your crap
make you anything but the TROLL that you are. The truth hurts, especially
for someone like you.

Kindred spirits. :) I've often said "If you aren't going to be born a
Scorpio, why bother being born?" The other 11 signs don't get it.
