How do I open a .WI file?
The only file on corel 8 photo disc is the photos.
I can't open with Corel 11 or X3 :help:

WI is listed as:

All Corel Products Compressed Image

In 1996 Summus licensed its WI compression format to Corel when adopted it for all of its products.

OK, does that mean I can't open it?

I tried that. Before my computer was worked on I had Corel 8 and could open it from there. I stressed to the tech that I needed to keep that program but he didn't listen

I am running ver 9 and in photo it shows WI as a option to "save as" and "open". You can send me a file and see if I can open it if you want.

I appreciate the offer ! The problem is I do not have the book for this disk.
It has many differant images than the X3 disc which is why I kept it.
I am looking for a leopard background that I have used before and would have to search for it as I don't remember which folder it is in.
Thank You Though !

If it helps you, you're welcome to come down to my store. I have a workstation with Corel 8 installed on it that sits idle most of the time.
