Pub 2000 error message

[Randy]

I have W98 and Pub 2000 I am trying to read a file
originally created in Pub2003 but saved as a Pub2000
file. When I try to open the file I get the following
error message. Any ideas, thanks, Randy

A couple of things maybe going on:
This is an article that addresses your issue, the solution is the same as it would be
if you are trying to open a converted 2003 publication.
