Publisher 2000 file keeps closing when I try to work in upper lef.

Every time I try to open a text box, insert a picture or resize anything in
the upper left hand portion of page 1 on my 4-page publication, the program
closes and Microsoft Error Reporting comes up. This happened to me in another
document, so i started all over again in this new one. Any ideas? I have
installed all my applicable updates...

Any chance you'd send it to me to take a look at it?

If so, send it to jl dot paules at gmail dot com.

Amy sent me her file. I opened it with Pub 2003 (by default) and it was
fine. I closed it without saving it. I opened it in Pub 2000 and sure
enough, it crashed when I tried to insert a text box or clipart on page 1. I
opened it one more time in Pub 2003, inserted a text box and some clipart,
and saved it as Pub 2000. It is just fine now.

Anyone have any ideas why?

Did she say what the error says when she clicks details? What did your details say?
What version Windows? Publisher 2000 saves printer information within the file, could
be her printer driver??? Sometimes when you select "Hide Pictures", you will not get
the error.
