If you click on it interactively (like in a browse) nothing. Programmatically, you get an OLE error. At least that's what I see. If I double click on a .BMP, then paint opens up just fine (W2K/SP1), and that's what's in my General Field. I'm *pretty sure* this all used to work OK prior to SP4 for VS6.
