Makes sense to me. It's usually a driver thing, isn't it ?

Hmmm, one actually needs ECSMT to do this ? I've just been using USBINST, or
whatever the install executable was that got shipped with the driver update.

Thanks for the heads-up on that. I guess using PMVIEW would likely be as
problematical as using the Drives object of WPS ? What about ZTREE, which is VIO
? I think someone at a meeting may have said that falls on the "Safe" side of the
fence, but I don't recall for sure. Of course, being able to *see* the images
behind the files is a huge advantage, when you're trying to decide what you want
to do with them . . . . That could be an argument in favor of doing this stuff on
the Dark Side.
