Publisher 98 with Windows XP

[Jim]

I recently upgraded from Windows 98 to XP. Now if I try
to open one of my Publisher files, I get a message
that "Publisher can't open from a previous version" What
do I do?

Try disabling Norton AntiVirus and trying again.

Thank you for your response. I did that but still get the
error message. However, I can now see the file in the
preview screen but can't call it up from there. Any other
ideas? Thanks,

What version of Publisher are you using?
How big are the files in question (in bytes)?

The version is Microsoft Publisher 98; the size of the
file that I have been using for this purpose is 37 KB.

Can you email me the file so I can try it?
Thanks!
