Hmm. Not sure about this one. I think the probability of having a ImageMagick convert.exe in %windir% is very low on W9X/Me and zero, to all practical effects, on W2K/XP (not sure about NT). The ImageMagick distributions for Windows (there's a "standard" binary tarball and a Cygwin package) do not install executables on %windir%. --=20 /L/e/k/t/u
