Publisher 97

[George Rice]

Hi,

For now, our company seems to be "stuck" in Publisher 97. We have many
surveys in Publisher 97 whose layout gets corrupted just enough that our
scanner misses answers, etc...

Is this a common or known problem that as one progresses through the newer
versions of Publisher that the layout changes?

Also, I can't seem to get Publisher 97 to use a MS-Access 2000 database
table as a data-source. It can see it, but throws an error right at the end.
Is this also a common or know issue? This means we're also "stuck" with
older version of Access as well.

Any advice, workarounds, whatever, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

-George Rice

You may think about updating your printer driver. Publisher saves all printer
information within the file you produce. If you have updated your driver, the
Publisher files may be looking for the old driver, thus causing some corruption. It
is the same with the video driver...
