Thanks for PCVIEW. I have a Bridgeboard and IBMs at work. I do not own DP III so your program is STILL useful to me! Also there is a HAM to VGA program out there now too! I think it is HAMVGA.xxx, it runs a bit slow but the output is not too bad. I usually convert my HAMs to GIFs and then show them on IBMs... -- Guy Dandrea, Network Systems Corp. // guy@nsco.network.com #129.191.1.1 \\ // 7600 Boone Ave No, Mpls.
