My question is regarding Microsoft Publisher. I have version 2000 .pub but cannot open a newer version with it nor with open office. Do you see a possibility to help?

There are sometimes some formatting or other differences, especially if there are audio effects across different slides. You can also get a free viewer, which does not allow updating the presentation, from the Microsoft website. To get OOo to open these files when you double-click them, you may have to set the "file association" for your system, and possibly for your e-mail client. This can generally be done by right-clicking on a file and choosing Open With, then browsing to soffice.exe, and choosing the option to always use this program for this file type. Setting the association once for each of the PowerPoint types should then be all it takes. (Note that the MS viewer will override this if you install it later.) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
