Ahah - yes, that does work! And for the record...
call {"c:\program files\ImageMagick-6.3.5-Q16\convert.exe" c:\pic.jpg
c:\pic.png}
And I'd tried something similar to begin with, but I guess I had the paths
wrong somehow, so switched to trying to get it to work how they say in the
manual.
You'll note the app's not called ImageMagick though. This is a suite of about
16 programs.
Anyway, thanks Gregg - you put me on the right track.
