bmp, jpeg
Hi there. when I try to open clipfiles my PC says it
doesn't know what to open with and shows me all my programmes, none of which open them. I try to convert the files into bmp or jpeg etc and face the same problem. I obviously have other jpeg, bmp images already on PC, so why this prob? Any ideas to overcome it, please. |

IIRC - Go to Add/Remove programs System Setup tab, Accessories, select and
install Clipboard Viewer (to the System Tools folder). Clip files (.clp) will become associated and you should be able to Open them - and Save them *And Paste them* from there.

Mart, I have clipboard viewer on desktop and I can view
the charts there, however, with difficulty if I do manage to move them elsewhere, ie a folder I want them to go to, I get this message: 'This is not a valid bmp/clp file, or its format is unsupported' Sometimes PC lists all my progs to open with, and each one I select won't open them. PLease suggest something, as its driving me mad.

You've lost me!
You say that you "have clipboard viewer on desktop and I can view the charts there" What charts? The 'clipboard' is intended as a "Temporary Store", used for the 'Copy' and 'Paste' commands. As an 'extra', MS included a Clipboard Viewer to allow you Save clips for later use - but only for 'Pasting' clips into other files. I don't understand why you are expecting to use it for .bmp and .jpg files (as the subject of this thread) It is ONLY intended for .clp files See also:- How to Install and Run Clipboard Viewer http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;141310 Note the final sentence:- "To run Clipboard Viewer after you install it, click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Clipboard Viewer. You can use Clipboard Viewer to view the contents of the Clipboard." Mart "Suz" wrote in message ...
