alphanumeric .bmp files

[Brandon Cernicky]

Hi Jodene,

As the other replies mentioned, you should not have
any troubles with any ASCII character that can legally
be used as a filename in Windows Explorer being in the
filename.  Here are some suggestions that might help:

1) If you are specifying a path/folder, use / forward
slash instead of \ backslash since characters such as
\n would represent a new line.  For example
images\Nonsense.bmp may not generate properly.
2) Ensure there are no spaces or other characters in
the List cell.
3) If you start a new experiment, drop an image
display down and point directly to the file, does it
show up?
4) Ensure that your entire path from the C:.... to the
.bmp does not exceed 260 characters.
