Import .cmx files..

[Tony Cook]

Mike:

First off - please do not send files to a newsgroup unless
specifically requested to do so - many users autodownload postings.

Next - what version of Corel are the cmx files from - and whihc
version of Ppt are you using?

- PowerPoint Version 8
- CMX files are suppose to be Version 4

File size was only a few k bytes didn't think it was a big deal....

Some of us are stuck with 28.8 connections, some days MS' news server runs
about as fast as the average glacier on a cold day. FWIW, yer average text
msg is maybe 30 lines of stuff; yours was 530-some, just to put it in
perspective.

Not trying to beat you up over it, mind ... just explaining why some of us
get cranky about attachments.

I see tony's on the CMX case, you're in good hands and I'm outa here.

Using PowerPoint97 I inserted your .cmx file using Insert as Object
from file. Worked fine. (I see a stylised text object "AirForce").
Ppt97 will insert up to Corel version 7 cmx files.

Did you select that filter when you installed Ppt? I don't think it
forms part of the Typical install procedure - may have to run a custom
install to get the filter.
