No, we do not. I was going to try a trial/purchase of Publisher 2007, but
wanted to be sure that would work first.

Publisher 2007 will open every version of Publisher documents with the exception
of very early versions such as 2.0. Your son will have better success editing his file if he copies it first to his hard drive. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "Stateparent" wrote in message ...

I have an addendum to this question......if my son uses Publisher 2007 to
edit the Publisher 2003 files he is bringing home from school on his flashdrive, will he still be able to open the edited files when he returns to school (on their 2003 version)?
