Broken Experiences #1

In the first of what I'm sure will be a long series of never-ending posts about broken experiences on the web and in software, here is an error message I got today when I tried to open a Microsoft Publisher file that was created in a previous version.  There are so many things wrong with this message -- nonsensical sentences, instructions to select an option that's not available, impossible explanations of what the problem is -- but that's just what you get from running Windows programs...

By the way -- for a great collection of creative error messages, go here.
