It's unlikely to take less memory to import an image with lots of white around it compared to one that doesn't, because the image would have to be loaded before you could know what was white. I wouldn't worry so much about what the help says, it was written when machines had 8 MB of RAM. Obviously though, if you import a load of images you will use a lot of RAM. If you need to do that, but only need one at a time, import them into the same cast member position, that way hopefully the memory from the previous image will be freed up. -- [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/LUJ/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Lingo-L is for learning and helping with programming Lingo.
