SYMPTOMS
The following error messages may occur when you open a Publisher document that contains a linked object:

When the server application is renamed:

Cannot update object. Windows may be low on memory or disk space, or an object may not be correctly registered.

When you double-click the object:

Publisher cannot launch or communicate with the OLE server program needed to complete this task.

There may not be enough disk space, or there may be a problem with the server program. To make more disk space available, delete some unneeded files on your hard disk. If you suspect a problem with the server program, try reinstalling it. Then try this task again.



CAUSE
The path in the Windows Registry to the server application is incorrect.



WORKAROUND
Reinstall the server application to rewrite the registry entries.
