I think I wasn't clear enough in my message. The thing
that is not working is a thing that used to work -
easily. One would simply select the graphic image, then
click the Text tool on the Pictures toolbar, click on the
image and start typing. This the text right on the
image. This was very useful for adding text to any image
or shape. This feature is no longer working on my
clien'ts upgraded installation of FP - he went from FP200
to FP2003. Not only is it not working for creating new
text on images, the text items that were there are still
there, but they are no longer text items - they have
become Hotspots. Checking their properties, one learns
they have no destination - they are hyperlinks to
nowhere. Has anyone else had this experience? Thanks.
