Yes, that's always worked for me. I have the feeling the original problem was that it was a huge file (50mb) and that made PageMaker stumble if not just refuse. All my smaller files have just popped open using your method. Sometimes if not, I've had to find my old computer, plug it in and use the old Pagemaker version. This is always a good Plan B, that i use even at work. When we upgrade computers, it and it's software go into the back room where we do our scanning and film imaging. Making a plan to have a plan B is very wise to do.

Yes, I still have my old Macs! Clear back to my original Se. They all still work and are sometimes called into action. My se serves as my recipe database and a place for me to vent when i need to write for therapy. My Mac Performa is in the guest room so guests can get online to read emails, etc. It's also great so I can use the web while hubby is on the 'big' computer.
My clamshell laptop is the gatekeeper to my novels i'm working on!
Fun all over the house!!!
