Inserting picture from file in Publisher 2000

[Ruth]

I installed a trial Pub 2007 and when it ran its course I uninstalled it and
reinstalled Publisher 2000. Since doing this I cannot insert a picture other
than clipart, ie. I can't insert a picture from my files or internet. I get a
message saying Pub doesn't recognise the format or there was an error loading
a graphic converter. Some of the graphics converters may be missing. Run
setup again. Well I've tried the 'repair' from setup again but still no joy.
Can anybody help? I'm not too good with these problems so can you keep it
simple for me?

The graphic converters are in a folder similar to this:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Grphflt

You can rename the filters to something like JPEGIM32.FLT to JPEGIM32.OLD and
drag a new instance from you setup disk into the Grphflt folder.

I'd try the CleanUp utility. Just be certain you have your setup disks and
product number.
