The graphic has to be in the same folder that the DDB is AND the same default folder for Protel. I had the same problem once and resolved it by creating a `work folder' for ALL my Protel DDB files and have my logo in there. As long as I always open Protel and my DDBs from there the graphic is always present. If I move my DDB to another folder and open that then the logo disappears.
