SMSQ/E checks the available memory. However, it might be possible to poke a value somewhere before doing the cCALL - I'll have to check that (this weekend). Wolfgang - www.wlenerz.com

Not the right question: compact flash means compact flash. Smart Media and Multi Media cards are NOT Compact Flash, they completely different electrically and physically, and of course do not fit a CF adapter. Of course, you also missed the fourth 'major' standard, which is Memory Stick. Nasta

Only the Compact Flash - but if you have a Compact Flask with some Tequila in it I would be willing to pop over. To be a bit serious the other media are physically different. -- Roy Wood Q Branch, 20 Locks Hill Portslade. Sussex. BN41 2LB. UK Tel : +44 (0)1273 386030 Fax : +44 (0)1273 430501 (New number!)
