When I try to create a new document--whether flyer, webpage or card--
I'm able to choose the wizard and it seems to start and then suddenly
stops before the first question is asked. I get no error message
except "publisher cannot complete the operation". I've run the fix
and repair program. I can use documents I've already created, open
them and change them but can't create anything new. If I haven't used
the wizard for a particular type of document sometimes the fix and
repair program will allow me to open the wizard and create that type
of document. But mostly it doesn't work at all. Any clues? I can't
imagine why it is so quirky. I'm running Windows XP Professional and
Microsoft Office 2000.
