    Hi,
    We have a Win.2000 PC with AutoCAD 2005 LT. When inserting a logo in
    jpg format, it appears as an icon with the filename underneath (not
    the actual image). This happens with all images. The same command
    (insert -> OLE object -> create from file) works fine on another Win.
    XP machine (same AutoCAD version). I've checked that the "Display as
    icon" box is un-ticked. Can anyone help? Is this a Windows OLE problem
    rather than AutoCAD? Thanks in advance.

    Not an actual answer:

    Does LT have "insert image"? In ACAD full, I find that to be a more useful
    approach than OLE. It wouldn't solve your problem, but it might make it go
    away.

    No there's no insert image command.

    There is an insert image for LT if you use !slingshot
    from www.drcauto.com
