<laugh> That sounds bad! Irfanview won't fight with Picasa. I have it, and ACDSee and Picasa on the same computer. I have ACDSee associated with the files, and use the other two when I choose to.

I use ACDSee to open most pictures. | Once opened in the photo program, you can use it to save the | file to a new location. | | Hope that helps! | | Regards from | | Bob -- the "Keyboard Cowboy", | ,,,,,,,, | Ô¿Ô¬ | Cincinnati, Ohio | Scottsdale, Arizona | --------------------------------- | Thursday, 3/24/2005, @ 7:12:08 PM EST | --------------------------------- | Always borrow money from a pessimist.
