Even though Pub 2002 and 2003 are supposed to open files produced in either
version, it seems from reading in the general newsgroup, that there are
fairly frequent problems with compatibility. Pub 2000 of course cannot open
2002 and 2003 files. I am just guessing here:
Are you using Norton AV on either computer? Turn off the office plug-in.
Have you run the design checker to see if it finds any problems. Sometimes
just having an object overhanging into the scratch area can prevent a file
from opening.
Have you updated all versions with the most current SPs?
Are you trying to open the files across a network? If so, be sure to copy
the files to the hard drive before opening, and don't try to save a copy
across a network.
Are you using the same printer for both computers, and is that printer
driver current?
Those are my first guesses. Maybe someone else will offer some suggestions.
Let us know if any of these things help.
