Can't seem to get any help from the UK on this one, hopefully you guys
can help...

I'm trying to automatically convert existing GIF images into BMP format.
I have previously done this using the CFX_COMMAND tag from
www.intrafoundation.com which allows you to execute command line calls,
which executed a PHOTOSHOP droplet (basically a .exe file that does the
graphic conversion) and this all worked pretty much OK with CF4.
Photoshop would load, open the relevant .gif file, convert to .bmp and
save the resulting file.

However, it doesn't appear to work with CF5; the page that includes the
call to CFX_COMMAND just keeps on processing forever and doesn't seem
able to execute ANYTHING.

I get the feeling cfexecute should be able to do this, but when I try to
use it, I get pretty much the same problem - the page times out at
whatever time I set in the tag, and photoshop doesn't load itself up. I
get the impression this is something to do with security settings, I
don't know why... Am I on the right lines?
