Microsoft Office Publisher >> Installin Publisher 2002

by Sarah » Sun, 14 Sep 2003 19:23:43 GMT

I currently have Publisher 1997 and am about to install
version 2002, but I don't understand the instructions. I
want to upgrade to all the new features but I don't want
to lose the publications I've created with Publisher
1997. How do I do this?

Thanks, Sf

from Sarah < XXXX@XXXXX.COM >...

What don't you understand about the instructions?
Installing Publisher 2002 will not delete any of your existing publications,
unless you saved your files in the "c:\Program Files\Microsoft Publisher"
folder
Setup will give you the option to Keep existing versions, which will leave
Publisher 97 intact (I recommend doing this, in case you have saved files in
the above folder)
If you purchased your copy of Publisher within the last 30 days and have
Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows Server 2003, I would recommend that you
return it and wait for Publisher 2003 which is coming out in October, as it
is a great improvement on Publisher 2002.

But which set-up option should I select to ensure that
Publisher 97 isn't deleted when I install 2002 version?
In trying to install last time, it actually started to
remove files from my previous version so I aborted the
installation.

Thanks, Sf

Select to do a CUSTOM Install and the options will stare you in the face.
You could not possibly go wrong.

Thanks. I saved it as a PDF, but I can't seem to save the pdf as a gif. On

6. Publisher 2002 hangs when importing/converting Word 2002 document

Dell Inspiron 8500, 640 megs of memory.

Files in word 2002.

Trying to import files into publisher will cause the convert dialog to
come up, but the file, once selected, never converts.  The progress
bar stays at 0%.  

Publisher is running at SP2, ditto with word.  

All the normal upgrades to xp home, publisher, office, etc have been
done.

Any suggestions?

I also tried inserting the text file as an object.  This does work,
but produces one large text frame, which will not link.  It looks like
publisher is thinking of this as a picture.

What I want is to be able to link to an existing word file, then edit
the word file so that changes automatically are reflected in the
publication.

This ought to be simple, but the lack of conversion capability
(hanging....) does not help.  Get the same thing when I try to import
a word file through the files menu.

Checked the available postings, didn't see anything.  MS database
seems to have something about importing JPGs and and RTF files... I
might be able to import the RTF files (has worked in the past with
other versions.....) but the step to RTF kills the connectivity and
ease of updating.
