Mary...
no luck.....i'm getting ready to shoot myself......it opens at home no
problem, but when i e-mail it to work i can't open it...
it is in publisher format when it comes to me; i can't open it in word excel
or acess...
i'm on a network printer at work so if i disable one, i will just default to
another....
when i try to open the document it looks fine but this window is in front
that locks up publissher and i can't get to the "grow to fit"...i can't do
anything...
thanks for any help; your saving a life...i don't get why it is fina at home
but not at work....it must be the way my publisher is set-up at work, but i
can't figure it out
