error message

Which instructions are you following?
What lesson are you talking about?

You cannot write VBA code in a Publisher document macro to create a new
instance of Publisher. It isn't allowed. You have to use a full
programming language that supports COM or COM interop (e.g. Visual Basic,
Visual Basic .NET, Visual C++, C#, etc.) to be able to create new instances
of Publisher.

I am using Programming Publisher 2003 made easy. off the microsoft.com web
site. It shows me how to create a newsletter using a macro. but after
following the instructions I get this error. all the other lessons that I did
worked except this one.

lesson 2

I have read through the lesson, and it looks like the code in it has been
written with using the full-blown Visual Basic in mind, rather than the
Visual Basic for Applications present in Publisher.
