Joe: I do something similar but I pass the image file to a form that displays the image and can be closed either by a timer event or by closing it by clicking a button. There is a checkbox on the calling form to confirm the seeing of the image on selection. You could do something similar where on a click you see the previous processed image and have the current image on the calling form. Just an idea to avoid the mouseup/down confusion you are experiencing. Regards,

I'm still wondering about this one - I posted this over the weekend and got no response. Maybe there is no way to do what I want and maybe my explanation needs revision. If it's clear and there is no answer I can live with what I have.
