WMF files not displaying

Have 5 users on a FE/BE system. I make corrections in the master FE and copy
and rename for the others. A START form displays the user details and a
picture so the user immediately knows they are in the correct FE, this data
is held in a START table and is altered by hand (I have been trying to
connect it to the name of the file so would alter automatically with no luck
so far) I downloaded some clipart from the MS site to use. The JPGs display
fine, but when I try the WMF all I get in the bound object frame is the name
of the file ie bd12345.wmf - the OLE class changes to Package. All the help I
have found indicates that WMF files should be no problem. And I know - I
could just NOT use WMF files - but I just would like to know why they are not
displaying. Using Access 2000 with .

Stephen - Thanks for your response. What application would work? The images
are linked, not embedded and as the FE systems are very small I am not to
concerned. What was confusing was that the Help screens indicated that WFM
files would work without anything other than Access, just like JPGs. Thanks
again.
Yours - Dika
