I have been using MapPoint 2002 w/WIN98. Recently I purchased a laptop with XP. Now MapPoint won't
import by .bmp file. Is there anything with XP that could cause the file paths to me messed up?

MapPoint is in C:/Programs and my app is in C: My Documents. I see that XP shares a lot of files. Any pointers for me?

This sounds odd. I just tried this on my Windows XP Professional system (upgraded from Windows 2000 recently) and importing a BMP file as a custom icon worked fine. You'll probably have to call Microsoft product support. Maybe you should try uninstalling and re-installing MapPoint too - that may fix the problem.
