Okay I've just tried dropping a small BMP into a OvPro frame, it does
NOT do the business, and gives the same err message.

That is interesting. It helps. It now sounds like any use of TransFSI
causes trouble.
David,

I've just dug out another version of TransFSI this one is dated 2002 so
it's inbetween the 1996 and current versions.

That sounds very good. My TransFST wont do this. Please could you let
be has the DS version. > Alan
Alan - are you using TransFSI on a RiscPC or an Iyonix?

An Iyonix my friend > Alan

That may be the source of the problem. In this thread a few days ago I asked why I could get PNG files to load into OP and CFSI on a VRPC (RiscOS 4) but not on an Iyonix (RiscOS 5). I got no response ... but further delving on the Internet led me to the following page: http://www.iyonix.com/iyonix/features/503notes.shtml

This indicates that RO 5.03 had no PNG support, unlike RiscOS 4 select. I'm not aware that PNG support has been provided in subsequent versions of RO5. Does this perhaps explain why neither of us has had any joy with PNG files and OP/CFSI?

Perhaps someone with more technical knowledge of these matters would like to comment ...?
