Re: saving in publisher 2000

I am sorry if you got so upset because you are unable to answer my
question.

Any file is readable if it is not damaged but it is not necessarily
understandable by a particular program.

Please tell us the English message that you are getting.

In a lot of years (40) in this business I have not seen a message saying
a file is "Unreadable".

Data errors of various forms, YES, but if you cannot give us the real
error message then how can we help you?

I do not think I was NEGATIVE. I just asked you what UNREADABLE meant,
because it is not a common error message.

It really helps to quote the actual message and the circumstances such
as the file extension etc.

Send me the file to sragrif at ozemail dot com dot au and I will try to
help you.

Okay, Dokay, John G., Somehow I must have insulted you for you to come
on so
negative with my question. I do apologize. Readable file is a format
that
some programs use for some files. That is the extent of my knowledge
on this
subject. But to help you understand what this is I collected some
info by
looking on the web I found this explanation that might help you: A
computer
file is a piece of arbitrary information, or resource for storing
information, that is available to a computer program and is usually
based on
some kind of durable storage. A file is durable in the sense that it
remains
available for programs to use after the current program has finished.
Computer files can be considered as the modern counterpart of the
files of
printed documents that traditionally existed in offices and libraries,
which
are the source of the term.
So if you do not have an answer for me that is okay 'cause this is a
very
perplexing situation even for me. But I sure hope someone can help me
with
this problem I have. I have tried various ways of saving to no avail.
Thank
you all for your feed back and I hope someone has an answer for me.
Please
no more insults or sarcasm I really need this info for my business.

You cannot save files directly to a CD of any type. Save to your
local
hard drive, and then burn to CD using recording software such as
Nero,
Roxio, or the Windows built-in CD burning tool.
