Can't save JPEG format!! HELP!

    Hi all,

    I'm using Photodraw for graphic manipulation...

    But the wierd thing is when I generate graphics within Photodraw, and save it as a JPEG file - Nothing appears in the target directory... I can save all file types including the native .mix / bmp / tiff etc... XP just won't generate a JPEG file when I ask it to from this application.

    I think I had this problem before but can't remember the solution! It may have been to do with clearing my temporary internet files (if there's a LOT of JPEGS in there - can't remeber!) I've tried this (including disk cleanup of XP drive) and it didn't work...

    Anyone any ideas...?!

    Thanks in advance!

    Also when I try to open a JPEG file in Photodraw (regardless of file size - some very small) I get this error:

    photodrawerror.jpg

    This happens when I right click on an image and select 'open with photodraw' and when I use the open command within the application itself. I've 2 gig of memory so I can't see a lack of memory as a problem.

    ...I'm stumped!

    I've recently installed Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 - would this adversly effect graphic files?! (longshot!)
