From: BHarper on 13 Nov 2009 19:30 This is completely ridiculous. I posted on 8/5 and shortly thereafter saw something that suggested to uninstall the Publisher security update. I do a monthly newsletter and uninstalling the update worked three months in a row. Now nothing! I emailed it to my laptop, which runs on Vista. It opened, but it was a version from April, even though it was updated and saved in October. !!??!! I have tried installing two different hotfixes (KB972566 and 976177) and maybe even a third mentioned somewhere else. I tried the registry fix as well. My only guess is that it's the SP2 update, although I can't explain why it worked before when I probably had the update installed back in August. Nor can I explain why less sophisticated and smaller Publisher files still open fine. I tried the SP2 uninstall download: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=b97e6ecf-8da5-455d-b3bb-8ff2223f97c4&displaylang=en Way over my head. Why do I need to be an engineer (or an 'administrator' as Microsoft calls it) to run software I paid $450 for? Thoughts, anyone? "maimer" wrote: > > I also am receiving the same error message.
