I am keen now to go and test it out. Yes ... testing is easy, but artifacts are not sometimes apparent unless you carefully compare before & after images by differencing (see previous thread or archive). cheerios ... shAf :o) Avalon Peninsula, Newfoundland www.micro-investigations.com =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
