  Problem
  On Windowsﾩ XP machines, JPEG files are associated with the
  Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. When I view a file from the DB2ﾩ
  Document Manager Desktop, the JPEG file either opens in
  Microsoftﾩ Paint, or returns an error message.
  
  Cause
  Windows Picture and Fax Viewer is not an application, but
  instead a DLL, shimgvw.dll inside of another application,
  rundll32.exe. DB2 Document Manager needs additional parameters
  to pass to the application in order to launch the file
  correctly.
  
  Solution
  1. From Designer > Global > Desktop > Desktop Templates,
  right-click on a Desktop Template and select Modify
  (non-wizard).
  
  2. On the Desktop Applications page, type the following values:
  
  FileType: JPG
  Application Type: Viewing
  
  Clear Launch associated application
  
  Application: rundll32.exe shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen
  
  Arguments: %filename%
  
  3. Click Add, then OK to apply the changes and exit the window.
  4. Run Cache.
  
  ----------------------------------------------------------------
  ------------------------
  
  The point I want to point out is the application setting:
  
  rundll32.exe shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen
  
  In this setting, the param ImageView_Fullscreen is case
  sensitive, and if we run commands in command line
  1.  rundll32.exe shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen
  2.  rundll32.exe shimgvw.dll,IMAGEVIEW_FULLSCREEN
  Obiviously, we will get an error with command 2 with error:
  
  Error in SHIMGVW.DLL
  Missing entry: IMAGEVIEW_FULLSCREEN
  ----------------------------------------------------------------
  --
  
  From FP6, all application setting has been changed to uppercase,
  including params, and this change results those applications
  with case-sensitive params will encounter errors, like the
  sample mentioned above.
  
  This change was made through an internal defect with number
  116627.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• When you assigned applications to a Desktop template (on the
  Desktop Applications tab of the New or Modify Desktop Template
  Configuration window), the case of any arguments that you
  provided in the Application and Arguments fields was not
  preserved. (Preserving case is important for applications that
  take case-sensitive arguments.)
  

Problem conclusion

• The fix is available in DB2 Document Manager v8.3 Fix Pack 7
  and v8.4.
