I have a disc with MIX format photo files which i cannot open in windows xp.
After reading past posts, I have opened them in ms word, but I read that I
should save them in my documents and save them as a web page but in the 'save
as type' in my documents it does not give the option of saving as a web page.
Can I save them as something else? Is there a download that will help?

=================================
If these files were created in PhotoDraw 2000
you will have to use PhotoDraw 2000 to convert
them. Have a look at the following article:

(308584) PI: Error Message: Sorry, This
File Can't Be Opened
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=308584

If these files were created in MS Picture It!...
you can open and resave them in the following
program:

Microsoft Digital Image Starter Edition 2006
is a downloadable 60 day trial version with
much of the functionality of MS Digital Image
Suite 2006.

Once your 60 day trial period has ended, the
program will de-feature to minimal functionality.

Unlike the retail version...the trial does not
have the ability to create VCDs and does
not support RAW files.

Microsoft Digital Image
Starter Edition 2006

Be aware that it's a 109 MB download....

===================================

Another option.....

===================================

If these are single image files created in
MS Picture It! and are not layered projects...
(album pages, greeting cards, collages, etc)
the following info should be useful to you:

The evaluation version of PolyView may allow
you to batch reformat your .mix files.

You can download an evaluation copy at the
following link:

PolyView
www.polybytes.com
(Go to...Downloads / PolyView 4.28 Setup
Program)

When you open PolyView...go to...
File / Format Conversions...

Browse to the folder your .mix files are
saved in and open the drop window and
choose "All Files".

Left click the "Add All" button.

Left click the "Continue" button...

Choose your "Destination Format" JPEG

Choose your JPEG quality...100

Choose a "Destination Folder"...

Left click the "Start" button.

Thanks John Inzer I dowloaded MS Digital Image Starter Edition 2006 as I'd
originally created my pictures in MS Picture It. I changed them to jpg and
saved them to disc which I then had printed at tescos. Thank you very much.
