Peter,
Going back to your original issue, I believe you will find that the page did open, but it opens up off the screen. After opening a file, look at the scrolls bars and scroll to the right and down. The page will come into view.
>I've had PageStream 5 for several months now and I've never been able to use it. It starts up with no problem, but when I try to load an old file or start a new one nothing happens. It shows all the tools and everything looks normal, except there is no page there; nothing to work on.
