Thanks once again for all of you inputs. I am so impressed with the level of
response and the caliber of knowledge out there.
We are in the process of having the clients PP upgraded with the patch. In
the meantime we had to get the CD out and were able to flatten the file
(output to BMP then import) This was the temporay fix.
Echo:
I will look into the web sites you suggested. However, the lingo to open a
file is sight specific and really not a good answer for CD's that need to be
distributed.
Thanks again for all you help. I've come away from this exercise not only
with several solutions that work but also with a great deal of respect for
the professionalism of this discussion group.
