Is there a way to convert MS Publisher 95 files to 2003 or other .

[bodoira]

I have some files I used years ago and now want to use parts of them. I did
them in Publisher 95 and Publisher 2003 will not open them. Any solution?

Thanks

Publisher 2003 will open Publisher 3.0 for Windows 95 documents without
hassle. What problems are you having?

Ed, thanks for the comeback. Now that I think of it, the documents were created in 1993, so Win95 wasn't out yet. Most likely at the time I was running Windows 3.11 for workgroups.

Any help there?

This introduces the interesting possibility that the documents were created
in Publisher 1.0. The last version of Publisher to be able to open
Publisher 1.0 files was Publisher 2.0. A few people here have Publisher
2.0, so if you ask nicely maybe someone will offer to open the files for you
and save them in Publisher 2.0 format (which, I believe, can be opened by
Publisher 2003 - fingers crossed)

It's normaly a good idea to start a new thread for a new issue

I'd suggest disabling Script Blocking and the Microsoft Office PlugIn in
Norton AntiVirus.
