Publisher 2000 not opening document made in 2003 and saved as publisher 2000 document

[Brent Atkerson]

I recently took a form we use for setting up our production machines that
had been made in Microsoft Publisher 2003 (I think) and had been saved as a
Publisher 2000 document and now the Publisher 2000 machine cannot open this
document. I have done this with other forms we use without a hiccup until
now. The only thing I changed on this particular form was the paper size
(from 8.5" X 11" to 8.5" X 14") and the layout to match the paper change.
Now, when we try to open it on a Publisher 2000 machine it says something
like the program has encountered an unexpected error and will shutdown. An
error report is being generated (where is this report by the way?). I can
send a sample of the document if need be.

You are welcome to send me the file and let me see if I can open it. I have
2000 and 2003.

You've got mail.... Hopefully.

Forgot to add in original post I have already tried these from a post
yesterday

Don't know what fixed it but JoAnn (thank you JoAnn) opened it in 2003
(thought I had 2003 but actually have 2002), saved it as a 2000 file and we
are now able to open. Still curious what the problem is as I have more
documents that this could happen to. Don't want to go and upgrade just to
eliminate this problem.....

Thank you,

I'm not sure what the problem was. I opened it in 2003 and did a Save As
2000. One file opened fine in 2000 and the other tossed me out of Pub. I
saved it again and POOF! It worked just fine. (Gawd, I love computers! So
logical. :-X)
