Hi Jim,
Finally got the WI shortcuts to work...
I had to Uninstall ACDSEE 3.1 SR-1 from my system...which existed prior to install of VFP 7.0.
Reinstalled ACDSEE, everything works fine...
Do you have ACDSEE or another Graphics (or File) Viewer on your system?
I suspect that WI might have a conflict with existing viewers...reminds me of the issues we used to face with Device Drivers and order of installation.
Hope this might help...
