I posted this about a month ago and got no answer.  If you do not have
Publisher 2003, is it possible to "open" html pages in publisher?

It doesn't seem to be in Publisher 2000.

Notepad will open html files.
You may want to get a better Notepad than Microsoft's.  Notepad+ is an
improvement and can be found at:

I am referring back to advice to open the web page in Pub 2003.  I tried in
Pub 2000 and it doesn't work, so I am wondering if it is a feature added
later?

I lost my files on my old computer and have to reconstruct the website from
the website.

fwiw, it's best practice to match the post subject to the post question.

Also this information is available at http://www.publishermvps.com .

Version 2002 introduced the ability to open an html file (still present in
2003). However Publisher is not an html editor nor a web design tool. So one
has to keep this "ability" in context.

For example if you browsed to a web page, say for example www.cnn.com and
did File, Save and saved the html file locally, then opened that html file
in Pub 2002/2003, you may or may not get an accurate outcome. And all you
can do is move the objects present, you can't access html code.

There was a specific reason this ability was introduced in 2002, one which
has nothing to do with my example above, it was for a Publisher specific
reason (aka function). And it's a long story I won't go into now. It's
demise was clear by version 2003, and I expect it to be purged from the
product in the next release next year. As such I don't know that the next
release will retain the ability to open an html file.

Thank you.  I did not find anything relevant on the link you gave.  But I
understand the function is not readily available.  I am faced with
reconstruction of the website.
