Hi,

Notepad) ... and re-saved the DDL file. However, when I tried to open
the DDL file with OPW, I got "File format not supported". Is that
supposed to happen?
It's telling you that you're trying to load a file type it does not know
about. One possibility is that when editing the paths the extensions got
changed. e.g. xxxx/myjpeg.jpg became yyyy/myjpeg
I'd take it one step at a time, produce the DDL, try loading it, OK? Now
change one filename by hand, try loading it again.
Bernard is quite right about using document relative paths, but he has
quoted the format for RISC OS, slightly different for Windows:
{filedir}\picture.bmp
(although I did change things so that the RISC OS format would work on
Windows, so it might be OK)
