You mean, you want it converted from Quark to Publisher? I doubt very much if such a tool exists. DTP tools are notorious for not supporting each other's formats. Your best bet may be a night-long copy/paste job.

Thanks in advance.

Good luck,

Thank you all, I handle it. I mainly was looking for a helping tool instead of copying and past.
Again thank you so very much.
