Hi,
I was emailed a form from a friend with .pub at the end of the attachment.
I have never seen this before and i'm unable to open it. Message I get
instead: This file does not have a program associated with this for
performing this action. Create an association in the folder options Control
Panel.
Also when I send a word doc with .wps at the end, they recipient is not able
to open it.
I'm confused, please help.
Thanks,
Michelle

PUB = MS Publisher document (http://www.microsoft.com/office/publisher/;
you'd need Publisher installed to open a PUB file)

Instead of saving your MS Works (Word) document as a WPS file, try saving it
as a DOC file.
