Hi tip,

In the Windows Desktop, double click on My Computer to open. 
Double click on the 3 1/2 Floppy A icon. 
If you are not in this view, click on VIEW, and then DETAILS.
This will show file extensions.
Example graphic.cdr
        taxes.xls
The extension is the part to the right of the dot.

Post here the extension names of the files, and we'll see if we can
locate which program opens them for you.

Of course, you may need the actual program the bumper stickers were
made in, to open them. If the company used a program with a
proprietary format, and you do not have that program installed, you
will not be able to see them. If a generic format was used, such as
.jpg, or .gif, then you will probably be able to see them with
programs you already have installed,

Regards,
crabcakes

What you can try and do is open it in Paint but instead, when
openingfrom paint, click on the bar that should say: Bitmap Files
(*.bmp)
and change it to All files. This will show every single file on the
disk or hard drive so you might be able to open it from there
I hope i was of some assistance

not a bitmap file.So I guess I will have to give up for now,and keep
trying to get a hold of the people that did  it originaly. Thank you
for your time and help.
