This assumes of course that you have enough memory to load !Draw and !Paint and your picture at the same time. Alternatively, you could save the whole screen as a sprite using *ScreenSave (?). There's a good article in the current BBC Acorn User magazine describing how to make labels for raspberry jam using !Paint, !Draw and !Edit which you might like to have a look at for some tips on this sort of thing. -- Denis Howe C-C H558A Imperial College London C-C-C +44 (71) 589 5111 x5064 N=N
