OK — I think I figured it out. I tried, through the fills gallery, to download the new fills to Xara. It couldn't find them. So I write to you for advice and you tell me to do exactly what I thought I had done. I went back and tried it again, exactly as I had before (at least I thought so) and it worked fine. Not being exactly new to Xara I have to assume the key to all of this was asking for your advice. So thanks mister Gary "voodoo" man.
