I have Aldus "Designs for Newsletters" templates. They say they're good for version "2.0 or higher." They worked fine with 3.0, but I've upgraded to 4.0 (for the Macintosh) and now they don't seem to be recognized when I try to open the template files. Any suggestions? Thanks….

What you will need to do is launch PageMaker first, then select open from the file menu and select the template. This should work as That is what I had to do. You can't launch PageMaker by double clicking on the template. One more thing, If you have never made any saves (you really shouldn't anyway) so that the templates are still a 2.0 version, you will have to bring them up in Pagemaker 3.0, then save them as a template, this will convert them to a higher version which can be then brought up in 4.0, then resave it again as a template. Hope this helps.
