JOHN, I figured out the image transfer problem! I had to become a DOS head to do it, but I got it working! You know how the Amiga allows you to save a file name with 30 plus characters? Well, WindowsNT, based on DOS, doesn't! It will throw the file out if the name is over eight (dot) three characters long! What threw me is when one of my LW re-rendered files got tossed! I was going to call NewTek and ask them if they would help me find a new job because I didn't think I was going to be able to finish the open..and then the DOS thing hit me! I renamed the files, and VALAAAA! IT went through! NO more re-rendering! YEAAAAAA! Now, I was told that Screamer Net has code that is supposed to rename the files if they are too long, but I guess I broke it! Well, until the next problem (there better not be!) GM :}
