Missing icons

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Please can someone help me?

I am using Project 2003 on an XP machine.

I open a task and go to the notes tab, click on insert an object, then
select "from file" and then browse to find the file.
This inserts the file fine, however despite ticking the link to file and the
display as Icon, it doesn't show the icon in the notes pane.
The Icon will show it if I click the "change Icon" button and select
From file, I can even change the displayed icon.
However when I click "OK" all it shows in the notes pane is a transparent
square and the title of the linked document.

This all works fine in Word on the same machine.

Help!
