PUB97: Can't Open HTML Documents in Publisher (154714)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Publisher 97, when used with:
- the operating system: Microsoft Windows NT
This article was previously published under Q154714 SUMMARY
You can use Publisher to create an HTML (World Wide Web) document based
on your publication, but you can't use Publisher to open that HTML
document. If you create a Web site using Publisher 97, you should also
keep a copy of the publication (.pub) file that you used to generate
the Web site. This way, if you want to make a correction to your Web
site, you can correct the .pub file and export it as a new HTML
document.
MORE INFORMATION
A Publisher publication file is a single file that contains both text
and graphics. When you create an HTML document based on that
publication, several different files are will be created: one text file
for each page of text and one picture file for each non-text element.
Publisher 97 cannot open documents in this format.
There are programs, such as Microsoft FrontPage, that can open an
HTML document. If you want to make a lot of changes to a Web site
created in Publisher 97, Microsoft FrontPage.
NOTE: You cannot use Microsoft Word Internet Assistant to open HTML
code created in Publisher 97.
If you are familiar with HTML code, you can open HTML documents created
by Publisher in a text editor such as Notepad and edit the code
directly.
