Leslie – Probably your best bet is to take an AGA viewer (ViewTek, whatever) and add it as a command. That way, you could highlight the file and select "view" the same way you might highlight a text file and select "print". The manual (I believe) explains how to do this, and there are plenty of examples in your startup.dm file. The way I did it (in startup.dm) is this: AddCmd ViewPic, 60, Extern Graphics:VT/VT %s where "ViewPic" is the title that shows in the command window, "60" is the color scheme (feel free to change it! 8^) ), "Extern" is a keyword that tells DM it's not a built-in ocmmand, "Graphics:VT/VT" is the path to ViewTek, and "%s" will be replaced by the file name when it is called. This works even if multiple files are highlighted, it'll call ViewTek for each one separately. Hope this helps … Harry
