I need to create a 'flyer' and attach this document to one of our internal
databases at work. However, if I was to create this flyer/document in MS
Publisher 2003 - is it possible to then go and convert this document into a
Word document? As the internal database that we use can only accept Word docs
as attachments.

==================================
Would a .pdf file be an option?

Try this...

Download and install the following free PDF Creator.

PrimoPDF
http://www.primopdf.com/

With your new program installed...open your project
in Publisher and go to...File / Print.

On your Print screen...open the drop window and
select PrimoPDF as your printer.

Click...OK...now you will see the PrimoPDF screen
and you can browse to a save folder.

When you click...OK..your .pdf file will be created
in your save folder.

The resulting .pdf file can be viewed on any computer
that has the free Adobe Reader installed.

No. You lose all of your formatting and graphics. You can try a copy and
paste but I've found the results are iffy.
