You can automate Excel from Publisher's VBA. All Excel commands are
available by calling an instance of Excel from Publisher's VBA. Publisher
has no macro recorder, so you will have to manually write your code, or hire
someone to do so for you.
Some tutorials on Publisher VBA can be found at

Well Tom, it depends on where you live in Ohio. I suspect it is the reason for
your problem. I am in southern Ohio and I have no problems...
Have you installed a virus program, is it Norton?

What happens if you double-click a file?
I am assuming the files are on your hard drive.
