Eberhard: It sounds like you are trying to read this CD as a Mac CD, that's why it's finding the 2 files in the directory. One is a resource fork, which contains the basic stuff for the Mac so it can identify the file. The other file in the directory would be the data fork, which contains the data for the file. You should be able to read the data fork, which is the actual .GIF file. Which CD-ROM driver software are you using anyway? Some of the drivers can be forced to making the CD read the files in the standard PC format without the resource forks. // John – (Being artistic via AutoPilot) \X/ Mercury@ins.infonet.net
