MORE INFORMATION
Although you can remove Artgalry.cag and it will be re-created, Works ClipArt will not be available to the ClipArt Gallery unless you run Setup and reinstall the ClipArt files. When Works installs ClipArt files during Setup, your ClipArt folder will contain *.pcs files along with associated *.cag files for each ClipArt image,(where *.cag or .pcs are the actual file names, such as Msworks4.cag.) The *.cag files will be merged into the Artgalry.cag file when you add pictures in the ClipArt Gallery.

NOTE: Other programs that add ClipArt images in this manner may also need their ClipArt files reinstalled. For more information on how to perform this task, see your program's printed documentation or on-line help.
