Any help as to what I am missing please.

Having restarted XNVIEW a couple of times I do now have the .wpg file association option in the list. I have

However it will not open.
The files are visible in Microsoft "Insert Picture" dialogues - so they are not corrupt, however XNVIEW will not open /view them.
It just displays the error "WPG:No Bitmap!".
This, of course, is correct, .wpg is a vector file, just like .wmf which XNVIEW displays without any trouble!

So where is the problem? Are there differnt .wpg formats?

Any help appreciated.
