Default Publisher 2 Church documents in pub format

I have 3 or 4 years of Church documents on Microsoft Pub 2 Zip discs that can
not be read by Pub 2003, and I have tried to down load both Office 97 and
Microsoft Pub 2 from original floppy and the CD, but can not on Windows XP.

How can I be able to read the files or transfer themto be able to be read
without a great deal of difficulty.

I have Windows XP now.

Sometime ago Microsoft had a security update that caused newer versions unable
to open 2.0 publications.
You should be able to load Publisher 97 on a XP computer, I have all the
versions on my older computer as well as a Vista machine.
How many files do you have? Do you have your zip disk backed up? I'd be willing
to convert the files for you. You can upload them to a web site or email them to
me or you can snail mail them, I have a zip drive.

Have you tried MS website help to search for compatibility downloads? There
is such a thing...and may be able to provide compatibility for cross-OS
programs.
