Microsoft Publisher print question

I create advertising flyers for a local theater using Publisher. The theater recently bought a new, wide-format printer to produce posters.
My question is: Can I continue to create the ads in flyer size (8.5"x11")and also be able to print them in sizes like 18"x22"? Will Publisher 2003 just automatically enlarge the fonts, text boxes, graphics and backgrounds in my flyers to fit the larger poster size? So far I haven't been able to do it. If 2003 can't do it, will 2007? They will get the newer software.
If it can be done, please walk me through it.
Should I be changing a setting when I first start the project to allow for printing in flyer and poster sizes?
PLEASE help.

I know very little about Publisher. However, I do know something about how MS Office products work.

Did you try opening the Page Setup window and nosing around?

Seems to me that there are some options there that by chooseing a LAYOUT, and then choosing the PRINTER & LAYOUT, you could get some interesting results.

Skip,

No, you can't design something to be A" by B" and then tell it to print C" by D". You can however print it to a .pdf file and then print that file whatever size you want.
