A system variable apparently didn't "work" yesterday.....didn't get an
error. It works FANTASTIC now! What I find of interest, is that one of
the Iscan developers told me that the 4490 won't scan higher than 2400
with the Iscan driver. Yeah right.......sure does, and even though I
haven't had the oportunity to check a lot of old negs yet, it certainly
does work!

Thanks for the heads up, Terry!! I bought the "standard" release and
like you, I can't praise it enough!

Fred
