Apologies.
You are quite right, of course.
Clearly, I haven't fully explored the new features Olaf has been adding in the last few updates!
Well, now that I know of this feature myself, I have tried it with RA1 shps, and they don't work for me either. So it isn't a problem with the prog on your PC. Only Olaf can say why it doesn't work for RA1 shps, and he doesn't seem to be around at the moment.
