 CG> DB>the art like I want it is to open it in Powerpoint and copy
I have finally gotten Powerpoint to call up the Clip Art. I kept seeing
"Cannot locate" (or something similar, This was late last night)
"picstore.dll". The picstore.dll was in Windows/system and was
available. I did a search and found another in a tmp directory. The one
in system was size 12288, and the one in Tmp was 15872. I moved the
larger one to window/systems and overrode the smaller. Evidently when I
installed Ver 7.0 the larger file was left in TMP because of the
presents of the smaller. Does that make sense?

I went into Word and the path is the same. I do Pictures/clip art and
get a directory window showing my "pcs files" by changing the file type
on the bottom I get sub-files cartoon, people, and 400.
It will not open these or display a picture in the right side
window,(which is for preview). I get a window to convert file showing
PCX,Tagged Image,Windows Bitmaps,Macintosh PICT,JPEG Filter,
and Compuserve Gif. Am I missing some convert files? or could they also
be misplaced?
I am using IBM compatible 486 with Win95. If you know of a file to
convert the Clip Art please let me know and I will see if it is also in
the wrong directory.

 They are on the same path.
