    If it's anywhere on your computer Start > Run mspub should start it.

    Did you create the file you are trying to print? Or did you download it or get sent it by someone else?

    If you didn't create it then maybe you have never had Publisher. Not all packages of Microsoft Office include Publisher.

    If this is the case, then you either need to buy a copy of Publisher, or find another program that can open publisher files.

    Many thanks for your replies,

    It was a document that I created in Publisher and have used many times.
    I have just tried the 'start run mspub' and it hasn't been found.
    Think I will get the OH to try tonight, I'm probably doing it totally wrong.

    I borrowed a friends ms office disk, is it just a case of inserting and uploading the whole ms office, or is it possible to just upload publisher?

    Why don't you use your own MS Office disk?

    If you start the setup it should give you the option to repair an existing installation.

    not sure if you saved document could it be you saved in an unexpected place. do any other files you have created open in publisher? try opening my computer icon - press F3 and try searching for name of the file you have lost
