navigation bar not showing up

[Lori]

I designed a webpage last year using Publisher 2003 and the site has been
working great until about 2 months ago when all of a sudden the navigation
bar buttons no longer show up. There are lines where the buttons should be
but no headings to click on to send visitors to a new page. I did not do
anything to the site to change anything to make this happen. Any ideas what
is going on? the site is www.gbfpd.com

If you are using Publisher 2003 or earlier

Create a web site with nav bars etc.
Saved web site as "My web site.pub"
With the pub page open
Ctrl a (selects all)

Arrange > Ungroup

This insures that all groups are ungrouped
This must be done on ALL pages individually
Re-Saved using Save As "My web site NBUG.pub"
I take the step to "Save As" so that when I shut down publisher and I get a
prompt to save my changes I do NOT overwrite the master file "My web
site.pub" accidentally.
Publish to the web
FTP to the server
Web site works using IE 8

If a change, update is required or a page is added
Open with "My web site.pub"
Make changes
Follow the above suggestions
BTW NBUG = "Nav Bars Un Grouped"

If you are using Publisher 2007 try installing SP3
