[G4] Speaking of Activity Monitor - What is TruBlueEnvironment???

[J. R. Rosen]

Wayne - GOOD MORNING!

I don't have ID-CS2, I have ID-CS, and it will open a Pagemaker file,  
albeit as an "Untitled" document.

I've been using Pagemaker since version 1, and have literally  
thousands of PM files.  I am so comfortable with Pagemaker that I  
just really use ID when I have to.  Although, I am finding I am using  
ID more and more everyday!

I'm sure that I will eventually convert completely to InDesign.  You  
know... old habits are hard to break!!!

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!
