Sorry, I lost the original message so I'm not sure who I am replying to.

I display jpgs from filepro with a small viewer that I found a few years
ago.  It's called VuePrint but the exeutable is named: vuepro32.exe.

It's available for 29.95 with a free trial download.

The version I have does NOT take focus when I change images (except for the
first time) and retains it's size and position on the screen (once you set
it up).  These may be "bugs" that have been fixed but I still have the
version that works.

I actually reserve space on the filepro data entry screen and overlay the
image.  Works great!

The only problem I had was forcing the extra window to close when you exit
filePro.  For this I wrote a small program in WIL Batch language that
searches for the vueprint window and closes it.  I execute this program as
the second line of the the menu script that calls the filepro application
(an inventory program that display the
item's images)

I demoed it at the filePro conference a couple of years ago.

If you like VuePrint I will be glad to make the program that closes the
window available to you.
