Hi there,

I installed Corel Draw 8 onto my NT workstation as administrator and it
works without a problem. Log onto the machine as a user and Corel PhotoPaint
8 opens files but continuously generates errors messages of 'Nib Files not
present or Read Only' whenever you touch any control in the toolbox. I have
removed and re-installed everything a couple of times now and searched the
hard disc and registry for anything that may give me a clue, but to no
avail. Anyone got any ideas as to what's happening?

n PhotoPaint, open or create an image. Choose the brush tool. Open the
tool settings rollup (CTRL-F8). In the lower half, to the right of the
brush shape buttons, there's a little arrow pointing to the right.
Clicking on it activates a popup. Try 'Reset to Default Nibs' first; if

that doesn't help, try loading the other NIB-file (default is the
PROSET.NIB, try 'pntnib.nib' for a change).

Oh and BTW I live down the road in Kenilworth
