I am building a report displaying country level information, and I have flags of countries stored in a file.
I understand there is a file named zapotec.bmp, which is a Microsoft file needed to make this happrn.
I don't have zapotec on my computer, anyone know where I can get it.

zapotec.bmp was a small image file used by XP for tiled wallpapers. It has nothing to do with flags, and does not 'enable' anything.

It looks like this:

Last year I built a report using country flags. The flags were stored in a folder in an individual file. At that time, my corporate
laptop used XP, and the flags displayed perfectly. Earlier this year, IT installed Win 7. I wonder if something happened to that zapotec.bmp
 
I'll repeat: zapotec.bmp is simply a file containing a picture (as shown above, although the shown version is tiled a bit) in bitmap format. It has NO impact on any other pictures, let alone flags, at all.
 
Can you (re)create the folder with the individual file for every country’s flag and use them as you did in XP?
No zapotec.bmp file needed

Have fun.
