About Mike VanHorn Expertise Versions of Works previous to Works v5 ( 2000 ), but I will take v5 and v6 questions, too. I have copies of the DOS and Macintosh versions, too, so I can try to reproduce your errors.
Experience I have used Works since version 1.05 for DOS back in the 80s. I have run a web site, currently at http://members.core.com/mvanhorn/works/, since 1996, and was even profiled by Microsoft on their Works web site.

Couldnt find Pcximp32.flt ot Tgaimp32.flt. It hasnt fixed the problem. Help!!!!!!
I make up flyers and were inserting pictures of houses that had been taken with a digital camera and downloaded to my computer. They are jpgs. I have uninstalled Works from my computer and when i reinstalled I found 2 discs. One for Works 2000 and one for Works 7.0. I wasnt sure what was installed prior and have put 7.0 back on. Either way, I cant insert the picks in flyers done before or after the reinstall!Which is the most recent program? Many thanks. Tricia

-----Question-----
I cant upload pictures into a Works 7.0 document. Get the message:Works cannot insert the selected picture because the picture may not be in a format which can be imported by the Word Processor. Save picture in another format and try again. Can insert into Word though

Word has a lot more convertors for importing pictures. Can you tell me what the picture is that you are trying to import. If it is a jpg from the web then it may be that it is a later version that 7 doesn't recognise.

Answer Is there anything you have changed about the images you are trying to put into the document? i.e. are you using higher-res images, or a bigger size?
Also, you might want to check the installation program again, and make sure you installed all the available options that came with Works; maybe the importation of JPEGs is optional.
