How can I get a bmp to show clearly in FoxPro 2.6?

Thanks!
 
Stacy,
Are you speaking of FP for DOS or FP for Windows 2.6a? The DOS version doesn't support graphics.

If it's FPW, what isn't "clear"? What type of BMP is it? There are at least for different file formats for .BMP files, sometimes you need to switch the type.

Though the "GENERAL" field type would store anything, how would you display it?

So one way would be to use the "RUN" command with the calling program.

Eg:
RUN XYZ.BMP would open the BMP in Paint (default association).

RUN IEXPLORE XYZ.BMP would open it in Internet explorer.
