Publisher 2002 file problems on Publisher 2003

[Kevin]

Hi Everyone,

I have a Publisher 2002 file that is just blank when
opened in Publisher 2003. If I click on the page I can
see the place holders for the object, I can even copy and
paste them into Word.

But Publisher 2003 keeps saying that the object is on the
Master, and to press Control M to view. But on doing
that the displayed MAster page is also blank.

Can anyone point me in the right direction??

Thanks

Kevin

Try view, pictures, detailed display...

Thanks for the suggestion Mary, I will try it tomorrow
when I get to work and let you know.

Hi Mary,

Unfortunately this did not work.... It was already on
detailed. What is unusual is that I can see all the
images on another machine running Publisher 2003.

I upgraded the video driver on the problem machine this
morning as wll,but tono avail.

Any other thoughts?

Thanks

Kevin

How large are the images? Is the background (Master page) a gradient?
Do you have the Office 2002 service packs?

Have you tried turning down the acceleration on your video adapter? Right-click the
desktop, properties, settings tab, advanced button, troubleshoot tab.

It is Publisher 2003, and I have installed SP1 and all
the other Office updates. Some, but not all of the
graphics are gradiated.

One Image is like a border for the page, and the others
are inside that (or on top of) that graphic.

Thanks

Kevin

What happens when you open the Graphics Manager? Are the images listed?
Gradient background is lost when you open a publication in Publisher 2000 that was
created in Publisher 2002 or in Publisher 2003
