It works fine apart from that. It was originally a BMP file which I converted to JPEG with !DPlingScan. I now have to take a decision which I never wanted to take and that is whether to change completely to Windows XP as I cannot justify running two seperate systems and I have a lot of input come in the form of DOC and XLS files these days as well as having to use windows for web browsing to be reliable. I am still reluctant about moving but at least I know it is practical to do so now - I shall give it a couple of months thought in a hopeful wait for announcements of an upgraded Iyonix. -- JayCee
