I to had a file saved in 4.2 format. Notice I said HAD.

Here is what you do: Start up PageMaker version 6.5 and with the file where you can get to it, select OPEN.

It gives various places to go. I selected Desktop and then the file name.

I had the file on my desktop. So I selected the filename (while in Pagemaker 6.5 ) Pagemaker springs to life and opens the file as version 6.5. Easy enough!

The dialog states it is converting the file. You must always save the file and use a different name or version number.
