I wasn't sure about tiffs. I had always had trouble finding a program 
that could open them. ( At least in the past
I did, havn't worked with them in a while. )
glad to hear that they are the standard now. I have heard that they was 
the best data format to save
in if space wasn't a problem.

Thanks

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
