My graphic elelments keep blinking in MS Publisher 2003

I have created a two pager with wordart, a logo, a form with check boxes and other text and when I open the file it blinks continually for about five minutes - like each element has to load. This is so frustrating and I need to be able to load this form online but I can't have it blinking for five minutes first. Any suggestions?

does it actually blink in the browser ... ? that is very strange ... have you tried looking at the site on another PC ... ? maybe it's your computer?

Yes - it is actually iwithin MS Publisher that it blinks
I've tried it on my laptop and get the same result.

okay yeah it blinks inside MS publisher, but that's not a ral issue ... does it blink in a browser (Internet explorer, FireFox, Opera, Safari) ... because that's all you need to worry about ... other people won't be viewing your site in M$ Publisher ...

Thank You.

I Uploaded the form to the web and lo and behold - no blinking. . .

BLESS YOU

all good ... glad you got it sorted out ... that's also one of the reasons I code all sites in notepad ... no funny business ...
