    Hi, me again :smile:
    Now i'm running into a filesize problem, my montior is running in 32Bit mode and every time i save a file from my program, it is abnormally large (500K for one with just 6 colors) anyone know how i can "trim the fat" from the saved files? thanks again for any help!

    Intel has a new activex control out to save as jpg which should cut HEAPS off the file size if they are only 6 colours.

    I think there is a copy at http://www.vbaccelerator.com/codelib/gfx/vbjpeg.htm

    Actually I know there is, 'cause I just went and checked!
